Extract

Although Russian knapweed is not as widespread as some of the other deep-rooted perennial weeds, thousands of acres of farmland are infested and it is spreading. It is generally called Centaurea repens L., according to Fernald and Stevens, though it also is referred to as C. picris Pall. Stevens states that there is some question about the identity of C. repens.
