    Thank you all ... this weed was growing in a synagogue's parking lot - when I saw it from the side walk, I immediately went towards it and took some pictures. Then one of the synagogue personnel came out of the building and told me that I can't take pictures of the weed ... because he said - you know it's private property. I understand all that - privacy etc. - but sometimes, I think we all need common sense, don't we? The next day, the puff ball was gone.
