Abstract
A weed may be broadly defi ned as any unwanted plant, or as I have heard it said many times, “a weed is a plant out of place.” For example, a corn plant is a weed if it is in a strawberry planting. Most weeds are plants that are generally considered undesirable by gardeners. They are neither eaten nor considered attractive. They are frequently invasive and diffi cult to control.
