    It appears to be the bud of an orang-ish wildflower. Any idea what kind?

    ...I've posted several plants on here lately, trying to figure out what they are - so I can decide whether to remove them, or leave them. lol =)

    Also.... Anyone know what this strange, stringy plant is??

    The first one is an azalea. Sorry cannot help with the other two. Last one possibly goose foot.

    The first is azaela.
    second..no idea
    third no clue either.

    Take snips off or pics into a nursery. They would be able to tell you what you have.

    If the first one is emerging from the ground it could be a perennial eg peony, if attached to a stem could be an azalea as advised. Don't know the second or third.

    If you have a new garden, and your not sure what plants you have, wait till they get up a bit and flower or develop leaves. You could pull some unusal plant out thinking its a weed. If unsure let it flower and see what you get. Rubbish flower pull it out before it sets seed you haven't lost anything.
