cleome
by: Kristi Barnes

I believe it looks like cleome also. When I was younger and experimenting with "herbs" I planted a seed in my grandpa's garden. Weeks later I found this growing thinking it was in fact the "special seed" I planted. My master gardener grandpa laughed at me and told me it was CLEOME. Purple, white, or pinkish flowers on it?
Asters are gorgeous!
by: Pat, southern Ontario

Hi - if this is indeed an aster (perhaps a fall aster) and technically a wild plant (hence a "weed"), I'd nevertheless be strongly in favour of allowing it to flower. Last year we had several of these "volunteers" in our tiny backyard and they quite outshone the commercial plants - in fact they were the star of the fall show: 5 feet high drifts (perfect word, Doug!) of purple and pink, and happened to have an understory of rudbeckia - wow! And loved by bees and insects of every description. I say keep it and see what it turns out to be!
Weird weed
by: MHenderson

We've had a few of those in our yard in the Texas Hill Country the last couple of years. We were searching for the name today and stumbled on your picture. Recognized it as a match right away but were bummed to see no one knew for sure. Kept searching and finally found it. Pretty sure it's horseweed.

Weed - wild aster
by: moni

Could also be a wild aster. Would consider it a weed and not worth keeping.
