Not every friendly looking plant is friendly. Don’t be fooled by the "white clusters" taking over Wyoming fields—Hoary Cress (Whitetop) is a tough invader that crowds out our native plants. You can tell it apart from Native Yarrow by its waxy, clasping leaves and dense, flat-topped flower heads.

If you see this impostor spreading, reach out to your local W**d and Pest District or visit wyoweed.org/wyld-watch/ for help!
