While weeding the beds of my new home (in Oklahoma), I came across this interesting plant.
Anyone have any clue as to what it could be?
Should it stay or should it go?

Hi Debedoo,
Congratulations on your new home!* That is a winner if you like the look of them.* They are called Cleome aka cats wiskers aka spider flower.* It's an annaul that will reseed all around the garden if you like the look.* Some folks find it a bit too seedy.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
