WHAT'S THAT WEED? SERIES

The Miriam Webster dictionary defines a weed as “a plant that is not valued where it is growing and is usually of vigorous growth, especially: one that tends to overgrow or choke out more desirable plants.”

As is the case with countless other subject areas, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. What’s undesirable for a gardener may be desirable for a pollinator or a herbalist.
