| YIKES! Burdock? Don't let that one go to seed, little thistle like flowers if it is burdock. |

| Sure looks like a burdock to me! The flowers are really pretty, but the seeds are something you do NOT WANT!!! Leasa |

| Burdock, and flaunting it. lol I second KWoods advice not to allow it to go to seed. It does look sort of architectural in your flower bed, though. Might make a good accent plant if underplanted with a dense array of hostas, daylilies and other stuff. There are ornamental species and varieties of burdock relatives (Rumex), so there's nothing embarrassing about having a wild member of the family show up in the garden. |

| Thanks all. I actually cut that bad boy down just tonight! My hubby's back is bad at the moment, and I'm not sure I can dig the root out of the ground-it's HUGE!! Lynn |
