Unknown Plant In My In-city Native Plant Meadow Prairie Savannah

8 years ago

I have had this 3000 sq ft Native Plant Meadow Prairie Savannah in my back yard for 20 years now. From time to time something new appears. This one looks interesting but I expect that it is a weed [not a native plant :( ] and that I do not want it. Looks like it multiplies using spreading roots and that it might soon become problematic. What is it please? [Old retired computer bum. A bit knowledgeable about native plants but not expert.] Thank you,

    Here is a link to the other thread so you can see floral’s suggestions which included monocots like solomon’s Seal, Uvularia, etc.
