What good plants can I grow in place of noxious weeds?

Once the weeds are gone, it is a good idea to plant something useful like wheat grass, a native grass, wild flowers or crops such as alfalfa, corn or squash.

Field bindweed or Morning glory is a colorful weed with white to pinkish trumpet shaped flowers and bracts about one inch below the flower. Morning glory can grow from one to four feet long and have prostate stems that grow horizontally to the ground. These are climbing weeds which attach to fences, form tangled mats and have roots which can be ten feet long. The bindweed seed can germinate for up to fifty years after its creation. Such weeds are very common in the Navajo Nation area, especially in higher altitudes.
