15 minutes of fame for the humble hogweed

Randomly picked a week while I was walking today (like ya do) and thought it looked like a snowflake or fireworks. By the time I got home it was dead, so I took my son out — this time in a car — to get some more.

Looked it up on the Google machine, and this is Hogweed.

I picked a cluster of flowers and put on a ruler to show perspective.
