My Mom got this small plant years ago, but we consider it to be a weed. It's flowers are yellow, and the plant is hardy and require little care. Do you know the name of this mystery plant? Thanks in advance.

Comments (6)Maybe the leaves are alternate... A better way to describe it is that the leaves grow directly from the stems on opposite sides of the stalk; they are NOT compound leaves. I don't know if they are "alternate" or "opposite" persay. It kinda looks a bit like common lowland loosestrife, but I'm not sure... thanks for the link... any other thoughts?...See Moreyellow flowered and purple flowered weeds
