This sounds like mallow as opposed to any sort of violet.

It's the bane of our lives here in Suffolk nowadays.


Malva sylvestris or some other species? Round this neck of the woods
Malva sylvestris is rose-flowered, not violet-flowered.

Well the stuff we call mallow is most certainly violet, quite a pale
violet admittedly.

Walking past one just now I suppose you could call it pink/rose,
though others are definitely more violet.
