Definition
Any of various plants supposedly favored as food by geese, or plants that grow in areas where geese congregate.
Etymology
Compound of 'goose' and 'weed,' following the pattern of English plant names that describe either the plant's appearance or its association with animals (like 'horsemint' or 'catmint').
Kelly Says
Plant names with animal prefixes often reveal what wild animals ate—gooseweed tells us what geese actually grazed on, making old plant names into a kind of historical record of animal diet and behavior!
