Ah-choo!! Or so I thought.



The things you learn. Here I was under the impression that Goldenrod (pictured here) was the culprit for the misery I have suffered every fall. The truth is that the guilty party is Ragweed which looks nothing like this plant. I have been walking around for the last week and a half in a daze of antihistamines trying to dry up my runny nose, and here I've been blaming the wrong plant. No wonder I have seen people growing it in their yards, and florists using it in arrangements. I thought these people were crazy, now I know better. What other misconceptions have I been living with?
