"What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered."
      - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Wild Weeds Plant Listing

What is a weed anyways? Does the term pertain to plants which spread in an aggressive and difficult to control manner or does it refer to any plant which is considered to be out of place from the point of view of a human with jurisdiction over a specific location? No doubt that there are different points of view on these questions, but all plants should be appreciated and understood and the wild ones which are native to a particular area should be admired and preserved for posterity!

Wild Weeds Sites

Wild weeds grow all over the place and these pages feature a bunch of places where wild weeds can be found. Whether we're talking harsh desert climates or extreme mountain environments, weeds grow everywhere and they are all adapted to their specific ecological niche. Looked at another way, a plant which grows well in one environment often fails to thrive in another. Understanding these differences can help plant growers do a better job at selecting plants and taking care of them.

FEATURED PLANT: Sneezeweed

With a name like sneezeweed (Helenium bigelovii) it sounds like it's not just a weed, but some kind of exceptionally annoying weed which triggers allergies in susceptible people. There's no doubt that the plant produces somewhat unusual, but highly attactive flowers. Encountering a group of these plants in full bloom is a pleasant sight to behold to say the least!
