Default Help to identify plants please


wrote in message

Hello,
We live in Ottawa Canada and we have a couple plants in our yard that
my wife feels are flowers, while I think that they are simply good
looking weeds :-) If anyone could help identify them we would
appreciate it very much. Hopefully the links below will provide
images.

Thanks,

The plants in the first photo are forget-me-nots. I grow them as a flower,
but they self seed all over the place and can take on weed status very
quickly. Just pull any you don't want!

The second I have growing in my flower beds too (Hamilton, ON). I consider
it a weed and is one I will never be rid of :-( It is incredibly invasive.
