For me, it's the johnny jump-ups trying to take over my vegetable
garden. I pull up a few that are unavoidably in the way, but mostly I
work around them -- at least until they've set seeds for next year.

When I first moved up here I thought violets were cute. I even dug a
few up from the lawn and put them in the flower beds! Little did I
realize how evil they are. Now I can't get rid of them.

Oh goodness yes.

Blackberries, in their place, are wonderful summer snacks. Their place is
the hill around the mini grove of pines, birches and poplar.

Violets - sorry, I love the leaves and flowers. Does reseed well though

Teasel - never should have planted it, but the birds love it, so I found a
new home for it.

Bird's foot trefoil - great yellow flowers.
