    Well friends I don't come here to much cause I seem not to be answer or my friends are busy with your gardens.
    My neighbor's Son planted this plant last night but I think it might be a weed.
    The plant is over 6 foot tall.
    When I first saw in the dark it reminds me of a Sunflower except for the flower.
    I hope the photo's help.

    Common Mullen Ed, it will have yellow flowers. Early colonialists would use the soft, fuzzy leaves to line their shoes.
