You have a weed photo featured at the top of your "Common Garden Weed" page but you don't explain what kind of weed is in that photo. I have a very similar looking weed that came in on a batch of hay and it has completely taken over my entire front yard. It chokes out everything including the native grass. When mature, the weed shoots up a slender stem about 12" that has a light pale purple (lavender) colored flower. The main plant remains close the the ground and I assume sends out shoots which create more weeds. I would love to know what this is and how to get rid of it.
