Black bindweed
Fallopia convolvulus
Black bindweed is a twining annual weed that spreads aggressively along the ground and over other plants, making it difficult to manage in garden settings. It is generally considered an unwanted invasive weed in agricultural and garden environments and is not recommended for deliberate cultivation. Regular removal before seed set is the best management strategy.
