Anthemis cotula (Dog-fennel, Mayweed, Pig-sty daisy, Pig-sty-daisy, or Stinking Chamomile) is an annual flowering plant distinguished by its strong odour, which is often considered unpleasant. It can be found in northern Europe as well as North America, growing on roadsides and beside fields. It may also invade cultivated soil and is therefore considered a weed.
