Pretty Dodder. Love Vine. Strangle-Weed (_Cuscuta indecora_) may be
noted in conspicuous orange or gold masses covering other plants. It is
a leafless parasitic vine bearing small clusters of white flowers. The
flowers are less than one fourth inch broad and have the petal-tips
turned inward. There are many dodders in the state, and each kind is
parasitic only on certain plants. The pretty dodder attacks the wild
verbena and other herbs and low shrubs from Illinois to Texas and other
parts of America.
