8-11 Red Bartsia

 8-11

Red Bartsia thrives in the low fertility soils of road verges, railway rights-of-way and similar waste areas. To compensate it is partially parasitic gaining nutrients from the roots of nearby grasses. It can be an agricultural pest outcompeting forage crops in farm fields.
