I like to pinch off the tiny dried seeds and crunch them between my teeth. For such a small granule, you get a lot of licorice flavor.
These are all considered 'weeds', which I guess means they aren't valued by some people. But I think they have a beauty all their own.
This one is a shrub along the walk-way at work, so it is watered. But I love the way the leaves are turning purple on the end of each stalk.

Well sometimes all the world seems like a garden if you just look.

You are right! God does give beauty to even weeds.Your photos do give the weeds a prettier look rather than "just being weeds"; except the one w/tiny "pretty" yellow flowers known as "Puncture Vine" or when the pretty little flowers turn into lethal "goatheads", a very invasive and hard to control menace. A farmers/gardeners scourge!!
As I created this blog I wished I had the names of the plants... do you know any others? It didn't occur to me to ask my ag friend. =)
