I was told that weeds are just plants growing where you don't want them
Yes, I do agree with that Stawks xx
I love the look of thistles etc.
In Victoria feral Gazanias would take over on the walls of road cuttings.
Beautiful to look at, but a bit of a pain when people would stop to take photos.
I suppose it would be worse, nowdays, with all of them snapping "selfishies".

It's all about how you see things as a farmer or anyone else that tries to get their paddocks free of these
noxious weeds view them in a completely different way,(and use a few choice words when talking about them,

Curse.It covers the Flinders Ranges in a beautiful
Purple blanket at a certain time of year,
Most likely spring. Looks spectacular.
It's another introduced weed species,(that's deadly to horses).
When we drive past any it's always with a curse,(it can invade vast tracks of land quite quickly and is hard
to control),
They're just growing where they're not wanted. 
If they'd like to come to my place... I've had almost no luck with them. I've laid down specially prepared beds for them - a base layer of shredded Hansard (because I hear plants thrive on BS), decent topsoil, bit of mulch, water them regularly and still nothing.
Maybe I'm giving them too much attention.
