As far as I know there is not another plant similar to Lambsquarters, it is a plant all unto itself! Here in TN is it considered a nuisance, it is extremely invasive. True it is an edible green, when young, usually the top tender leaves but around our farm it is definately a weed to be destroyed by tilling, pulling, burning and or spraying (heaven forbid) We are usually able to keep it tilled down and/or pulled out. I find it interesting that in different regions of the world there are plants that are weeds to some and "GOLD" to others. There is also the Poke Plant, some harvest the leaves for Poke Salad, but on our farm its a weed! Catherine

We have growing on our farm in abundance that which I think are Lambsquarters. Are there any look alikes for Lambsquarters, that could fool me into thinking that's what it is? It starts popping up in the spring, but it grows year round. If you could email us, there are other questions looming, but don't want to take up the space on the list serve for them. (frankly its a little embarrassing inquiring about a "weed").Thank you for any information you may have to share. doerunfarmtn AT aol.com
