Purple Weed Blossom

This photo was supposed to be in a series of weed blossoms I took this summer. Turns out I didn't take that many ... regular flowers are in much greater supply in the city. Still, no blue weed blossoms either ... blue must be a complicated color for plants.

On a totally unrelated note Happy Birthday to my father and sister!

Weeds Blossoming

Like most plants I'm not sure what this is, but it really annoys me as it's infested my lawn and garden. I thought it was some kind of ground ivy, but I guess it's called field bindweed. As bad as it is in the yard it's really tough to deal with in my garden. It crawls up my raspberrys and breaks them off at the top.
