| This plant popped up 2 weeks ago. I noticed it while I was weeding around my potentilla, and had never seen a "weed" that looked like this. I decided not to pull it, and is now about 18" tall and 18" wide. New leaves open daily. |

| Thank you all! Saltcedar, the photos of Chinese Senna are indeed identical. My plant had no flowers when I took the photo, but a bud appeared this week. I guess some wayward bird left a deposit because it is not a common weed in PA. |
