Just found your site through Blotanical.com and wanted to say how lovely it is. Thank you for sharing.

Hi there, Jacqueline. I’m glad you stopped by. It’s always fun to meet a blogger from the great garden-blogging state of Texas!

Did you say *weed*? Shall I start from A and go to Z, or work backwards? Every biennial I have ever grown is still here with me, as are baby shrubs and numerous perennial and “annual” offspring, and even half my vegetable garden (tomato or dill or angelica or fennel, anyone?).

My worst weed is a real weed, not somebody I ever planted. It’s “garlic mustard.” Ugh.

Oh yes, the dreaded garlic mustard. I’ve heard that it’s pretty good for pesto. But seriously, how much garlic pesto mustard can one eat? Not enough to keep this menace under control, I think!

I love all those ‘weeds’ that are just plants in the wrong place. I’m still working on developing enough backbone to get rid of them ALL. I’ve got galinsoga. It isn’t so ugly, but the name is.

Ugh, yeah – I have some of that too. It’s so annoying, the way it keeps breaking off unless you grab it right at the base!
