Xanthium strumarium, commonly known as rough cocklebur, is an annual plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to North America but has spread to many other parts of the world. The plant is known for its spiny burs that can attach to animals and clothing, aiding in seed dispersal. It typically grows in disturbed areas such as roadsides and fields.
Xanthium strumarium thrives in full sunlight and prefers seasonally dry tropical climates. It can tolerate a range of temperatures but grows best in moderate temperatures. The plant does not require high humidity and can grow in average humidity levels. Watering should be infrequent, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings.
