I'm pretty sure it's campanula rapunculoides - sometimes "affectionately"
called cancer of the garden, because of its invasive tendencies. Be
afraid - be very afraid.....LOL. It's pretty in bloom, but nearly impossible
to eradicate once established - (makes roots like parsnips - even the
tiniest piece of root left remaining after pulling will produce another huge
vigorous healthy plant).

I am interrested in the identity of a purple flower which I found
close to my home in Southern Ontario (Canada.) It has 5 petals per
bloom and was growing next to a bike trail through the woods. There
is a picture of it he
