Weed

I am really not sure why some flowers are called flowers and others are called weeds. Dandelions are pretty, cheerful, easy to grow, and my grandmother used to swear the the greens were a spring tonic.
How could anything as sweet as a violet be called a weed. I don't get it. I like a jumbled wild looking yard with a lot going on. I'm quite comfortable with my "weeds"!

Violets are my favorite flower! They're much too pretty to be a weed.
