The differences in broadleaf weeds' structure and growth habits make them easy to distinguish from narrow-leaved weedy grasses. [5] Most broadleaf weeds have leaves with net-like veins and nodes that contain one or more leaves, and they may have showy flowers, [6] while grassy weeds appear as a single leaf from a germinated seed. [7]
The plants often grow together in crowded colonies and spread by runners at or just under the soil surface. In late summer the plants produce tubers that are twice as long as wide, [9] each typically measuring 0.5 to 5 cm (1 ⁄ 4 to 2 in) in diameter. [8] The plant produces rosettes of leaves and an inflorescence on a long rigid scape.
