It’s that time of year that my garden is full of surprises- some of them good (like discovering Queen Anne’s Lace is a perennial) and some of them… questionable! I haven’t wanted to pull this, because it almost looks like it’s about to flower, but I have a sneaking suspicion it’s actually a weed. Can anyone help me identify this?

Beebalm – definitely a friend. Probably [spotted beebalm](https://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=MOPU) but it’s too early to tell.
Lemon bee balm, will give out purple and white flowers. A true beauty. Don’t pull!
I get what you are asking, but most weeds are also flowers.
A weed is just a plant that’s growing where you don’t want it to.
If you like it where it’s at, it’s not. 😃
