    I wonder what this interesting plant is. Is it visible? By the way, the lady from the Noxious Weed Control Board said there is currently a moth present in Whatcom County that likes to feed on poison hemlock.

    It's Dipsacus, common name teasel. I think it can be rather weedy.

    It can be exceptionally weedy, though typically only in a small area.
