Three neighbouring (front) garden lawns are full of violet coloured
blossom
at the moment. One lawn is neglected and hardly ever mown, the other two
are
close mown regularly. I would say the density of the plant is, if
anything,
greater in the close mown lawns, although the individual plants, of
course,
are bigger in the neglected lawn. I don't think this particular weed is a
violet, however, it looks more like campanula glomerata (clustered
bellflower). And those neighbours who use 'weed and feed' don't have any
in
their lawns.


All we need are a couple of gardening programmes to extoll the virtues of
the latest thing in lawns being purple flowers and people will be
desperately trying to get these flowers to grow :0)
