A superb "crop" of this plant appeared after a field had been set-aside from norma agriculture. This plant is common in the South East of the country, quite likes eastern coastal districts but isn't very common in central wales, Scotland or northern England. The common name Cudweed arises because it was once used to feed to cows which had lost ability to chew the cud.
