This plant, growing in several places in the lawn garden, caught my eye during wet weather when the grass couldn't get cut. I initially thought the 'leaves' looked like hearts as they grow on stalks about a foot (30 cm) high. I've never seen anything like this before but it is definitely unique and strange.
*Thanks for the ID, Glennis and John, of 'shepherd's purse'.
While editing in Photoscape, there are many different things I can do to the colors and hues, but I guess I am a realist when it comes to photos and can't quite bring myself to show you strange and weird edits so I will just stick to color enhancing and monochrome.
Very interesting plant. The heart shape leaves reminded me of a plant covered with little butterflies.

ReplyDeleteI took a picture last winter (but in Florida, so it was warm) of a similar plant, red but each little flower-let looked like a heart. But I never could find out the name of it either..
ReplyDeleteI think the name of this plant is Shepherds Purse. It is a weed,
ReplyDeleteInteresting plant...I am like you, I like to keep things they way they really are.
