Definition of a weed. Any plant growing where you don't want it. Grass
in
the flower bed is a weed, but in the lawn is great. Reseeding annuals in
my
rose bed are weeds, but in the rest of the flower bed are desirable
plants.
My taro grows both in the pond and in the soil around the pond. I
consider
that outside the pond a weed, since it goes everywhere, my SO thinks it is
a
desirable plant.
=======================
I know the definition of what a weed is. :-) I mean the plants down by the
river are not attractive. Not all plants are pretty or have nice shapes or
pretty flowers. Some are just spindly, dangly, ratty looking things and
either don't flower or the flowers are small or also unattractive. I look
at the whole plant before I decide to buy or adopt it.
