I had never heard of creeping bellflower, so I did a search. Wikipedia says its botanical name is Campanula rapunculoides, which grows on stalks and has a spearhead-shaped leaf, neither of which applies to violets, which appear to be shown in morte73’s posting. Maybe there is another plant by that name? Do you know its botanical name?

It looks more like creeping bell flower which is very invasive. Roots near the surface are thin and you think you have gotten them all when digging them out but they connect to large tubers about 6 inches farther down. Digging them out does not always work. Only thing that worked for me is Round-up. Spray the leaves, let sit for at least a week so it works its way down through the tubers. May need to be repeated to eradicate a large “infestation”.

They are violets. In the early spring they’ll give you a beautiful purple flowers. Then bugs eat the leaves into swiss cheese and they look terrible for a while, then they pop new leaves, etc. I use them as a border around landscape areas. They spread fast and can kinda be trained to keep to their space. When they get ugly I just run over em with the mower. They’ll come back.

Violets. See “green ivy/weed” submitted on site just 4 places ahead of you.

This is taking over my lawn. It might be good if all you wanted was this vine, but we hate it.

I also want to know how to be rid if this or dies it make good hearty ground over?
