Plants average 2 feet tall, but may exceed 4 feet on \u003cbr\u003ebetter soil. The leaves are pinnately compound and somewhat sensitive to the touch. The black, \u003cbr\u003eshiny, flattened seeds are produced in pods that pop open to scatter the seed when mature. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eUses: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\nThis seed is a choice food of upland game birds and song birds. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoil Adaptation: \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrows naturally on practically all soils in Mississippi.
