Alyssum alyssoides is a species of flowering plant in the mustard family native to Eurasia, but found throughout much of the temperate world as an introduced species and sometimes a common weed. It has hairy stems which can grow up to 30-40 cm long and produces yellow flowers that fade to white with four small petals. The leaves are simple, narrowly oblanceolate or linear with smooth margins, and are alternately arranged. The fruit is a round, hairy capsule up to half a centimeter long, with tiny, 1-2 mm long, winged seeds. It is often found in arable fields, sandy tracks, pits, and docks.
