Vicia cracca aka Bird Vetch

Vicia cracca, also known as tufted vetch, cow vetch, bird vetch, blue vetch, and boreal vetch, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the pea and bean family Fabaceae. Originally native to Europe and Asia, it has been introduced to other continents, including North America, where it is considered a common weed and often found in disturbed habitats such as old fields and roadside ditches. This versatile plant can grow on grasslands, slopes, shrubbery, and forest edges, but prefers well-draining soil and direct light. It can reach up to 120 cm tall and has weak, clingy, ribbed stems that are usually branchy. The species is known for its varied pollination, leaflet size and shape, and crown color. To control common vetch, post-emergent two-, three-, and four-way broadleaf herbicides containing triclopyr, clopyralid, or fluroxypyr products are effective. However, if you have a rare tufted vetch houseplant, regular watering and organic fertilization throughout the peak growing season are necessary for its survival.
