| Chenopodium bonus-henricus |
Description: With its large triangular leaves, this is the easiest of the goosefoots to recognise, and also the only perennial member of the Chenopodium genus in Ireland. It is, however, rare; found usually near houses or farms on waste or disturbed ground. It is probably not native, but an old introduction.
All names: Chenopodium bonus-henricus L.
