I was watching the girls working this plant pretty hard early this morning. I don't know what it is but the bees seem to like it. I was wondering if any one knows what it is?

Looks like a kind of smartweed. Sometimes lumped in with the buckwheat family.

Re: Plant ID
My horticulturist wife says it is in the Persicaria family. Smartweed is in that family, but the flowers look rather large for common smartweed.

Amazing!! Just this morning, I took some pics of my bees working what looks like the same plant. It comes up as a volunteer near the house.
