is it a weed or a wild flower  |
| |
| I have many weeds growing in my garden, some we know right off that they are weeds and so we pull then out, Then some weeds have pretty flowers on them and we like to let them grow if they are not growing in a flower bed and choking out the flowers that we have planted. In some parts of the Eastern part of Canada Lupins are thought of as weeds. They are actually wild flowers. Moreover lupins have been grown domestically and gardeners are continually working with them and producing hybrid versions that are very beautiful . Here on Grand Manan we see Lupins growing all over the place, no one controls their growth. They are very pretty. Below I have included a picture. | | lupins | | | | |

| | Okay well you know my pc is acting up big time tonight? Well I just wrote a response to this subject and when I clicked post response it just froze and didn't record my message. How do you like that? I sure know I dont' because now I feel like I wish I could remember what I said so I could say it again. Basicly I said I love weeks they are beautiful. I often have commented about how I love this flower and the person with me will say that is not a flower it is a weed with much discust in their voice. I happily say but it is a beautiful weed! I remember a friend saying one time its a weed? Weeds aren't beautiful? I think they are I said especially when a flower is growing on them! How can a flowering plant be a weed I said. Okay I am not dumb I know there are flowering plants that are weeds but I also think they are beautiful1 Is there anything wrong with that? This flower in your picture is beautiful and I was sure it wouldn't be a weed but isn't it awesome that something so beautiful is a wild flower! Wild flowers are breathe taking as it seems even a wild flower says I am free, I am free to be me! Something like that anyway? I love your picture! | | | | | | |

| | I think a poet once said... "A weed is a plant that just happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time." I know I feel that way about some beautiful weeds that grow on my yard. Dandelions, thistles, even the nasty creeping charlie! :) | | | |

| | They are so beautiful! Thank you for sharing them with me, bigpinkmomma! I love lupines, and for many years tried to grow my own. I get the little seeds to start, but when I move them outside, they just die like they've never had a chance. Oh well. AS long as there are some, somewhere, and people like you take beautiful photos of them, I guess I can still enjoy them! | | | | | | |

| | Thanks for the compliment . You know I looked at your spelling lupines, and I looked at my spelling lupin, and then I looked them up in the dictionary and we are both correct . | | | |

| | Since kiddo came along, I've had a hard time with the flower beds and keeping them maintained. I planted mostly perennials to save time and money plating every year. This year, I let things grow. I really need to trim some plants back that are blocking the walkway, but it's a hot week.. I'm watching morning glories grow up from the previous owners (this is our fourth summer here) and decided this year to let it grow, unless I know for sure it's a weed. I have something growing that is evenly spaced like someone would have planted it, but I am clueless on what it is and it doesn't have flowers on it. LOL | | | | | | |

| | all weeds that have blooms are wildflowers. Just some people dont see the gift that some weeds are. Free flowers who can beat that, my 10 foot tall joe pyle weeds are my favorite they have purple blooms on tall dark green stems. And I love flea bane this year I let them grow and they too are taller than me LOL. I even lucked out and got some chickory growning in the yard they have beautiful blue flowers, Ive also got some beautiful pink morning glories and wild potato vines that have beautiful white flowers on them.nature has filled my yard with pretty flowers and its a good excuse to not to mow the grass | | | | | | |
