Marsh Weed - Macro Monday Challenge

Some weeds are pretty, sometimes prettier than cultivated plants. This common marsh plant is also among those. When you see them growing densely ( as weeds usually do) and shake their dainty blooms in the wind it is a pretty sight indeed.

We often underestimate simplicity or commonality and refuse to acknowledge them for what they are. Weeds like this marsh plant, the wedelia , the Lark Daisy and many others are quite beautiful in their own right.

I have the lark daisy potted in a container , I am very careful to dead head the spent blooms to prevent them from invading my garden. The dhalberg daisy too is another plant that grows like a weed in my garden. It is one of the prettiest flowers I grow.

Here are a couple of posts about the other pretty weeds
