Beautiful Wildflower or Troublesome Weed?

In our gardens, as is in our lives, the decision of beautiful wildflower or troublesome weed depends on the gardener's desires. Some gardeners find value in what others call a weed. It is important to decide quickly and act early if a weed needs to be removed. Below is a table gathered from Common Garden Weed Identification: Pictures & Descriptions | The Old Farmer's Almanac to help make decisions about common North American weeds.

The key to deciding how your garden, field, or acreage will grow is dependent on being educated. Know what you have. Know what you want. And be willing to remove anything that is causing your success to be at risk. You decide if you have a beautiful wildflower (contributing to your success) or if you have a troublesome weed (that needs to be removed).
