Bassia scoparia is a large annual herb in the family Amaranthaceae (sensu lato) native to Eurasia. It has been introduced to many parts of North America,[1] where it is found in grassland, prairie, and desert shrub ecosystems.[2] Its common names include ragweed, summer cypress,[2]mock-cypress, kochia, belvedere, World's Fair plant, burningbush,[1]Mexican firebrush, and Mexican fireweed,[3] the provenance of the latter three names being the herb's red autumn foliage.
