Revision 2653261 of "Noxious weed" on enwiki

A '''Noxious weed''' is a [[plant]] that is growing in such a manner that it is causing problems by interfering with other desirable plants or contaminating the harvest of useful plants. The [[teasel]], for example, was a plant widely grown because it was used to manufacture woolens. It is no longer needed for this purpose but grows everywhere. Thus it has become a noxious weed.
