The neighbors across the street have these things planted in
their front yard.
If you're from the South you know what these are. They are Goldenrod.
They are WEEDS! They grow wild everywhere in the South and have started
to take hold here. They cause terrible allergies. We are bumfuzzled why
anybody would plant a weed in their yard. They are like all other weeds,
they grow like crazy. Perhaps someone here gave them a cute name and people
bought seeds thinking they would get a pretty flower.
At one time, in my youth, this was Alabama's State Flower. Fortunately, someone wised up and removed the weed from the state flower list.
