trying to find this one online but no luck so far. it can be so tiny that many other plants will easily overgrow it, which is why i don't consider it a real problem at all. i like that it flowers early and grows in very poor sandy soils and other tough spaces, but Mom doesn't like it so i've had to get after it to keep it knocked back this season.
note that plant on the right of the picture is tiny, but i've been pulling thousands of these that are even smaller, like they have a few leaves and one seed at the top and that's it. whole plant might be 3mm across and 2cm tall and that seed at the top will be so large in comparison.
i always find such things interesting. anyways, i'm hoping to find out what the name is and any other info. like if that seed capsule at the top contains more than one seed. can't tell as of yet...
yes, i really wish i had a microscope...
