Purple Wildflower
"gregpresley" expounded:
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).
Oh, do I hate that plant, it came into my garden in a pot of peonies,
and you're right, it's impossible to eradicate. Damned thing.....
