Viney Weeds #809465

Asked September 05, 2022, 8:35 AM EDT

What are these vine-like weeds? They seem to appear toward the middle of August over the tops of the grass in my lower field; they are sticky and clinging and spreading. Thank. you.

Washington County Minnesota

Expert Response

The plants are probably Persicaria sagittata (Arrow-leaved Tearthumb).
