This is the second year that this plant/weed has decided to show up in our front flower bed. Hubby asked if he should take it out but I said no because I like the way it looks.
Is it a giant dandelion?
The puff balls are a least 4 inches big and the plant is about 3 to 4 feet tall.
According to google it is called a Salsify and considered a plant. It’s a vegetable root and also called Oyster plant or Vegetable plant.
I have no plans to harvest it, I just think it’s unique.♥♥♥♥

It is very unique! Anything that voluntarily springs up in 100 degree heat during a drought has earned the right to stay for a spell in my opinion. Que Bella su casita!
