I have never heard of such a weed. Guess we don't have it down here. Good thing. I fight the hemlock enough as it is, don't need anymore weeds to battle.

I think there's a Dillweed somewhere on Brown Cafe that may be able to answer this question.

Is the hogweed the brown stuff? Looks alot like hemlock bloomed out, but smaller crowns.

I think this batch is brown due to lack of shade,there was some white ones but this was the biggest batch all together.
