So beautiful stretched across swaths of open fields on the plains. So unrelenting and deadly in my gardens, wants to choke every other plant, you can't kill it, even with toxic chemicals, and I hear-tell the seeds can stay germinated for up to 20 years. I loved it when I first moved west from Massachusetts, but I am SO over it now.
