...But not much more. As I
wrote last fall, my bleeding heart bed also has jewel weed. Last summer was a bad year but this year it's back in force. I did have to water it a couple of times but it's growing strongly now.
It's not blooming as profusely as it has in some years, but it still looks nice. The plants themselves are not unattractive. They go well with the landscaping scheme where they are. Soon they'll set seed then die back to the ground and just disappear.
As I noted last year, I don't have any in the woods or anyplace else that I have acres of poison ivy--just in this one little bed, and I don't know where it first came from. I did not get around to harvesting seed last year but I'm going to try to this year. This is one weed worth spreading around.
