    Answer

    Dear ellenu5, good morning. I can't tell who you have taken an image of. There simply isn't enough of the plant shown for me to tell. Perhaps you could get an image of the lower leaves on the plant, that would help me identify this specie for you. As far as removal, that depends on your goals, which we can discuss further if you wish.
