Can you tell me what these 3 things are? They're growing in my yard in Mt Angel, Oregon, about 20 miles east of Salem.

Marion County Oregon

Expert Response

The first is Dovefoot Geranium, Geranium molle.
The second is common Catsear, Hypochoeris radicata, which looks similar to dandelion.
The third is Bittercress, Cardamine hirsuta.
Click on the names for more information about each one.
These are all very common weeds in this area. Bittercress flowers and seeds very early, so it is best to be vigilant and pull them out now!
