Those aren't "weeds," they are daisies and poppys...


Daisies? No. These are Scentless Chamomiles (Matricaria perforata), which is a very annoying weed in the grain fields of Europe. It's mostly resistant to pesticides as well, and not easy to get rid of.

Okay, you're totally right.
Any plant growning in an area you don't WANT it to grow is a weed, by definition! If you have a rutabaga patch, and you find rare orchids growing there, by golly, they're WEEDS!

Concerning the poppies, I suppose it depends on whom you ask. Imagine the qualities of the flour grinded from wheat mixed 1:1 with poppy seeds...:-)

Mot sure that would do it, but I am not going to find out!
The bright orange California poppies I have growing in my backyard are NOT going to be cut down for experimentation! ;-)
