Ah Mary, but it's a really beautiful weed. Prettier than a lot of "proper" plants! I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I took a trip to Chicago a while back, and one of the arboretums had a big sign telling about the various plants there. One of them was the wild onion. I almost fell down laughing. What they were so proudly touting is a weedy menace in the south! So, enjoy your "weed". I wouldn't mind having weeds that look like that!

I do think the pink flowers are pretty and they are on lattice on the fornt and sides of my porch. at least they come up every year! They do spread so I have to transplant them back to the porch! :roll:
And if I knew how to send them I wold send you some!!

That could be k3n! Kentucky gets pretty cold sometimes! This year was one of them! And ICE too! Sorta glad that all I needed to get out for was PT! And at that time was only going twice a week! :lol:

I was wondering when it was said it started coming up all over the yard. Not a good thing. It is beautiful, however. I have my own method for deciding if something is a flower or a weed. If you look at it crosswise and it falls over dead, it's a flower (quicker the death, the more expensive the plant). If you can't get it out with a backhoe, it's a weed. No matter how pretty.
