It sprouted before everything else. It was pretty close to where I knew there was a coneflower.
But as it grew, I felt edgy. It doesn't look right. It looks broad-leafy.
It looks like a weed.
But I don't know.
So I keep watering it, waiting for it to flower so I'll finally understand.
But it makes me nervous to water it, because if it is a weed, it's putting down roots and stealing nutrients from the flowers around it.
Have anything like that in your life?
