This very common plant, also known as 'fireweed' was once grown as a garden plant but is now considered to be a weed. It's hoards of airborne seeds make it a very pervasive plant which forms very dense clumps which exclude all other plants. It also has thick roots which allow it to spread beneath the ground.
