Invasive beauty

Invasive beauty
Couldn't resist photographing this spectacular seedhead of a Goat's-beard plant that was growing at Confluence Park a week ago. This is one of our most invasive, destructive plants and it has taken over a lot of our parks and natural areas. Introduced from Eurasia. The bright yellow flower is beautiful, as is the dandelion-like seedhead, but what a huge problem it is.
