Interesting article. As someone brought up in Central Otago in the South Island of New Zealand, Shepherds Purse was ubiquitous and in fact was regarded as a weed. I have not seen it to the same extent in Dunedin (where I currently live) or Tairawhiti (East Coast North Island).

Shepherds purse is considered an invasive plant in many parts of the US. Please do not intentionally plant it!
