Basic Plant Identification
Channel: Biological Weed Control at the University of Idaho
Date: 2021-11-02

Throughout the University of Idaho's Weed Identification Series, we use specific terms to quickly describe a weed’s life cycle, growth form, leaf arrangement and margination, root structure, and flower structure, all of which help viewers determine the key traits that set the weed apart from other plants. In the interest of time, we don’t define those specific terms in the individual weed identification videos. So the purpose of this video is to give you definitions and examples of those key words.
