Chenopodium vulvaria L. |
Stinking Goosefoot (Chenopodium vulvaria), or Notchweed, is a foul-smelling plant or weed. The plant is a member of the genus Chenopodium, the goosefoots. The specific epithet comes from the Latin term vulvarius ("having a foul smell"), in reference to the fishy odour of crushed leaves.[1]
