Question
What is the plant with burrs (large leaves in back were a cucumber)? The flowers were white, five petals, resembled raspberry. The leaves are furry and toothed like a raspberry. Thornless. Came up at the edge of my suburban MA garden. Is it invasive? Thanks
Answer
Dear rjleong, good afternoon. You have photographed a species of Geum (common name: avens), a member of the rose family. I can't tell you which species of Geum from the single image provided. If you want to supply additional images of the fruits and leaves, I might be able to help further. Best wishes.
