 or
 the love hate relationship I have with teasel - could it please set a
 few less seeds and not hide so well
I had been wondering where this lovely little fern came from in my shade
garden when the second summer someone told me it was teasel and advised me to get
red of it immediately or I would deeply regret it!!! Well, I did. Now I have
another one and am wondering if I can't keep it until it starts to set up the
stalk. What do you think? I was kinda sorry I got rid of the first one b/c I
liked it so well and thot I would see if I can live with it until it sends up a
seed-head. Do you think I will regret it?
If you pick it (gingerly) before the flower finishes blooming, you may be in luck. I let one or two seedlings go to flower every year - I love it's other worldly appearance.
