Description
Gypsywort (Lycopus europaeus) is a medium to tall, slightly hairy plant with oval to elliptical leaves. The leaves are toothed, mostly stalked, and pinnately lobed at the base. Small white flowers, about 4 mm across, grow in dense whorls at the base of the upper leaves. Gypsywort thrives in wet habitats, particularly along canal and river banks and beside streams. Its upright growth adds structure to damp areas and provides nectar for insects.
