Question

Growing a few weeds in my garden. This is the common Orange Hawkweed, Hieracium aurantiacum, or Fox and Cubs, for obvious reasons. It may only be a wild weed, but it does make a show.

Answer 1

I like it, such a plush show of blooms!

Answer 2

These flowers grew wild in my grandparents' home in northern Ohio. As little kids, we would pick them along with all sorts of other wildflowers. But I don't recall the flowers being quite as large as yours in the pictures. Could be a different variety. I agree with @HippieChick, "weeds" are plants where you don't want them. There are a couple weeds I either grow or would like to grow in my garden.

Answer 3

I define weeds as any plant growing where I don't want it. I don't think these are weeds at all.

Answer 4

I love the color and visual interest.
