It is therefore common near roadsides where other plants cannot flourish; it grows tall if it can do so, but in frequently-mowed areas it adopts a flat growth habit instead. Historically, the plant has thrived in areas where ungulates graze and turn up the earth with their hooves.</p> <h2 style="color: #000000; font-size: 1.5em;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Reproduction">Reproduction</span></h2> <p style="color: #202122; font-size: 14px;">The mode of reproduction can vary among populations of<span>&nbsp;</span><i>P. lanceolata</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-Jousimo,_Jussi_2014_15-0" class="reference" style="font-size: 11.2px;">[15]</sup><span>&nbsp;</span>Reproduction occurs sexually, with the pollen being wind dispersed for the most part, though the plant is occasionally pollinated by bees.<sup id="cite_ref-Jousimo,_Jussi_2014_15-1" class="reference" style="font-size: 11.2px;">[15]</sup><span>&nbsp;</span><i>P. lanceolata</i><span>&nbsp;</span>cannot<span>&nbsp;</span>reproduce asexually<span>&nbsp;</span>in the way that many other species of<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Plantago</i><span>&nbsp;</span>can; instead, it is an obligate<span>&nbsp;</span>outcrosser.</p> <h2 style="color: #000000; font-size: 1.5em;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Enemies">Enemies</span></h2> <h3 style="color: #000000; font-size: 1.2em;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Insect_predation">Insect predation</span></h3> <p style="color: #202122; font-size: 14px;"><i>Plantago lanceolata</i><span>&nbsp;</span>is host to many different species of the order<span>&nbsp;</span>Lepidoptera.

Both of these mildews are obligate<span>&nbsp;</span>biotrophs, meaning that they can only infect living tissue.

In Edinburgh, Scotland this game is called ‘The 1 o’clock gun’ after the gun that fires everyday from Edinburgh Castle. Writer Sean Michael Wilson notes that: "When I was a kid in Edinburgh we used it for a cute wee game called ‘The 1 o’clock gun’ - we twisted the stalk around into a kind of noose, quickly pulled it (with the left hand pulling back sharply and the right hand moving forward) and then the head of the stalk would go shooting off. Piitttt!! We used to see how far we could get it to go - great fun." In the West Country of England the same game is called 'cannonballs'. Another game played with the plant in Scotland and Ireland and possibly also in England is called 'Bishops'. This game is a bit like<span>&nbsp;</span>conkers; a child tries to knock off the head of their friend's stalk using their own stalk, via a fast downward thrust.</p> <br> <script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>
