weeds?


Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them. 

--A. A. Milne (1882-1956) author of Winnie-the-Pooh. 


This is Chickweed, which grows in clumps of tiny flowers -- a fairly common site along woodland trails from March to November. The five petals are so deeply notched that you would think there were ten.
