Robin's Plantain blooms earlier and is much shorter than the well-known native weed, Daisy Fleabane that looks similar. Robin's Plantain blooms from mid-spring to early summer for about 2 weeks. After blooming, the flowering stalks die, but the basal leaves remain green. The root system is a crown of fibrous roots that also forms rhizomes or stolons to form small colonies of the plant. Robin's Plantain prefers partial sun with average to dry soil moisture conditions. It tolerates many different kinds of soil including clay, loam, and sand.
