Railroad ballast, dumps, vacant lots, and similar disturbed places. A native of the Mediterranean region, widely cultivated for its large seeds, which are a commercial source of mustard; now naturalized as a weed in many parts of the world. First collected in Michigan in 1888 in Keweenaw Co., but collected only once since the 1920s.
