I've them in my garden as well, Lyn, but to me they are too beautiful to be treated as weed, ☺ .
Good one!

Wonderful details Lyn and I see these by the roadways from late spring until frost - just saw a patch of them Saturday.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
