    Hello.

    Am new to this site, and would love an ID on this plant for my uncle who lives in the east kootenays.

    Thank you kindly.

    Pull off blossoms as they wilt or you will have it all over the place. Ripe seed pods when touched will spit seed 10+ feet away. The are easy to pull up, but will come up all over. Some commom names are Policeman's helmet, poorman's orchid, touch-me-not among others. They are beaitiful tho. barb
