Re: Unknown annual, or tender perennial
another southern vicious weed. I hate weeds. description of weed: anything growing where it is not supposed to. one person's weed is another person's flower.

looks like nutsedge to me. it is a vicious weed in the south. roundup won't kill it. I spent the better part of the summer trying to get rid of some, and it just keeps coming back from it's underground nut. We have some canadian thistle which trucks seem to bring south with them. roundup will work on it.

this is an achimenes. it is in the gesneriad family, the same family as african violets and gloxinia. i have had the old time purple ones as well as pink, blue, and white large flowered ones also yellow, red, and white small flowered. also,I have episcia which is a gesneriad. i hope this is helpful. oh, by the way, the small tubers from which the achinenes grow, multiplies each year. they are not cold hardy, coming from the tropics. I eventually ran out of places to put them. I lost all mine a few years ago.
