The plant is native to Eurasia and North Africa, but is also found elsewhere, including parts of North America, as an invasive species and roadside weed.
Fiddle dock is a perennial herb with erect, slender, thick, straight-rooted stems that can reach up to 70 cm tall.
The leaves vary in shape, but are often oval, with a leathery fiddle center, and are about 10-15 cm long.
