Name that Weed

What the heck is this weed?

It’s the weirdest thing I’ve ever seen in the weed world.

Had big leaves, almost like a poinsetta, and these white with like a purple tint flower that almost looked like a morning glory and it has these huge spikey seed pods. HUGE.. and evil looking.

It sprouting in my wheat field, after the wheat finished up. It’s about 2 and half to 3 feet tall. Quite impressive.

Do you think this is a stowaway from North Dakota? Where I got the wheat seed? It just laid dormant and sprouted up when it had a chance?

It’s very weird and distinctive.

If you have a clue, would you leave a comment???? I’m just really curious. I want to pull it before it lets loose with that alien seed pod for sure, but right now I think I’ll let it grow a little more and see what it is.

HELP!!!! hahaha…..

  1. I have seen those before. I’ll get out my wildflower book tomorrow to see if I can identify it. If the flowers open up at night, it looks like the moonflower but not sure. I’ll see if I can locate something in the morning if no one else has figured it out.
