Native to the Southern United States and Mexico, these plants are known for their pretty flowers. After the flowers are spent, they produce small dry fruits that have a tendency to get stuck on your clothes or in animals furs. This is why these plants are sometimes given the common name of Beggarticks. The fruits that have hitched a ride on your clothes look similar to ticks with their hind ends sticking out from their host.
