- Fireweed is often abundant in wet open fields, pastures, and particularly burned-over lands; the name Fireweed derives from the species' abundance on burned sites after forest fires. The reddish stems of this herbaceous perennial are usually simple, erect, smooth, and 1 1⁄2 to 8 feet tall with scattered alternate leaves. The leaves of fireweed are unique in that the leaf veins are circular and do not terminate on the edges of the leaf, instead forming circular loops and joining together inside the outer leaf margins. This feature makes the plants very easy to identify in all stages of growth. The leaves are lanceolate and pinnately veined. The symmetrical flowers have four magenta to pink petals, 2 to 3 cm in diameter. The styles have four stigmas which occur in symmetrical terminal racemes. The reddish-brown linear seed capsule splits from the apex and bears many minute brown seeds (about 300 to 400 per capsule and 80,000 per plant). The seeds have silky hairs to aid wind dispersal and are very easily spread by the wind, often becoming a weed and a dominant species on disturbed ground. Fireweed occurs throughout the US except in the southeastern states and Texas. It is found in all of the Canadian provinces. It also occurs throughout Eurasia and is the national flower of Russia. Also known as Great Willow Herb.
