Before and After....

 Some folks like Weed Whackers.  I prefer weeds.  I had been following the progress of this Waterleaf at the edge of my driveway.  That is, until yesterday.  It's a shared driveway, so I have only 1/4 claim on any given weed, and it looks like approximately 1/4 of this plant might have escaped the lariat.  So, it'll be back.  I can wait.

Funny thing is, this isn't really a weed unless you fault it because of where it's growing and you prefer mowed grass.  The California Waterleaf is a beautiful native plant.
