Acalypha rhomoidea

Euphorbiaceae

This is a little weed about half a foot tall with slightly hairy leaves an inch or so long. There are dozens of species of Acalypha in North America. A. rhomoidea may sometimes be considered a subspecies of A. viginica which is also very common. The flowers are inconspicuous and occur in the leaf axils.
