Marshelder

Iva xanthifolia

Iva are annuals or tall perennials. Eleven species are native to North America. Plants grow 1 to 6.5 feet tall in wet conditions along the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal states and in the western U.S. One species, burweed marshelder (I. Xanthifolia) looks similar to giant ragweed, but the leaves have no deep lobes. Another species, rough marshelder (I. ciliata) is similar in height, but has longer flowering structures with a rough appearance. Dune and coastal marshelders are native to coastal areas in the east and southeast US. Greenish flowers occur at the top of the stem and in small, upper leaf-like structures. Flowering occurs from June to October.
