It's pretty I think, especially for a weed :) And now I know it's name, thanks Pat!
My weeds are not nearly that pretty. Very nice!
Very nice! Pretty weed.
You amaze me with your knowledge of plants!! Such a pretty weed!
Pat, I love how your first is framed against the background! Very nicely done!
You even make weeds look artistic! We have a lot of Queens Ann Lace around here, but I've seen that.
