| Pitseed Goosefoot From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chenopodium berlandieri, also called Pitseed Goosefoot, Southern Huauzontle, and Lambsquarters, is a species of goosefoot native to North America, where it is very common in temperate regions and distributed throughout much of the continent.[1] It is a fast-growing, upright, weedy annual plant growing to 10–105 cm tall. The leaves are variable in shape, roughly triangular, 1.2-12 cm (rarely 15 cm) long and 0.5-7 cm (rarely 9 cm) broad.[1] The species includes the following varieties:[1] It is capable of hybridizing with the related introduced European Chenopodium album, which it resembles, giving the hybrid C. × variabile Aellen.[2] Although widely regarded today as a weed, this species was once part of the Eastern Agricultural Complex of prehistoric North America, and was a fully domesticated pseudocereal crop, similar to the closely related quinoa C. quinoa.
