It's now in bloom somewhat resembling white, round Queen Anne's lace blossoms, several on tall stalks. Heading east into Moretown, it's on the left side of the road just before the library. In fact, it's all over the place!
 
Assuming that it reseeds this way, just cutting off the blossoms will save millions of seeds from planting themselves, and it's another case where one person can make a big difference. If you have it and it's in bloom, would you cut off the blossoms before they go to seed? As so many of us know, with up to six-foot roots it can easily spell the end of our flower gardens, and even a half-inch of root is all that's necessary. (On Monday, I mentioned it to the owner of the new bridal shop in Waitsfield, and the next day the blossoms were gone. Congratulations!)
 
Please do join those of us who love our gardens and native landscapes. This one won't take long!
