Marestail or Horseweed and the very first picture that you show are defiantly not the same plant. The very first plant that you show is wild lettuce. Bob

Horseweed it is. Thanks guys! I'm late in getting to it unfortunately, but I think I'll mow it with a D.R Trimmer Mower this week. It's a native, but seems rather obnoxious.

The guy at the Extension office told me to try to bag up the seed portion of the plants.

The fluff carrying the marestail seeds is hard to contain once mature. The slightest breeze or motion launches it. Mowing kills marestail after a few cuts.

I found a great free phone app called "Seek" for plant identification. You take a couple pictures of the plants and it does a pretty good job identifying them.

Wow, I might look into that app. I need an app like that. I plan on mowing tomorrow so I spent 2 hours tonight bagging up horseweed tops that had seeds. I came upon a patch of this strange looking large weed:...I'm thinking it might be a good test for the 'Seek' app. This tall thing has a base that looked like a pine seedling but obviously it's not a pine. I got behind in mowing and feel like I'm driving thru the bush.

I finally got around to getting the 'seek' app set up on my phone tonight. I think it will be beneficial.

iPhone has a plant I’d app built in now.

Take a picture.
Select the picture
Tap the “I” in the bottom center
Tap plant id and wait a second for results

I don't have an iPhone but I haven't found an app yet that I like better than Seek.

I will have to check out Seek

I have been using Picture This and it has been spot on. I started out confirming plant ID with a google search and it was always right

My iphone is old, it does not have plant ID option

Picture This is pretty darn accurate! I've not used Seek.

A couple of other apparent ID app alternatives, which were mentioned at today's invasive workshop that I attended are apparently called Plant Snap and Google Lens

I have the app "Picture This". It is also a great plant ID app.

Is SEEK a free app??
