Dogbane
This is another native: Dogbane.
It grows in shady ditches, as well, and this one is actually from out by the road.
The flowers are small but the leaf pattern and stems are very recognizable.
I wait for them to bloom every year--they're so pretty!
And CearaQC, does this look familiar?
Heal-all.
Can't get rid of the stuff, but at least now I know I can take it for what ails me!
