Currently blooming in my southern New York State Garden, the Star of Bethlehem (Ornithogalum) is a bulb that can be found in many parts of the world. Considered a weed by some, it’s got to be tenacious to survive the jumble in my wildly overgrown perennial garden!
In response to Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Single Flower or Bud, and Jennifer Nichole Wells’s One Word Photo Challenge: Bulb. Thank you Cee and Jennifer for the challenges!

Looks way too pretty to be a weed.

It IS a pretty flower and so I let it grow, just as I allow all the other pretty, aggressive spreaders to grow. Over years of neglect/semi-tending, my garden has become a perennial battle ground!
