Can anybody tell me what kind of flowers these are. They spread all threw my hostas and now my wildflowers. I picked some and put them in water and they starred to sprout. And now I'm getting blooms. I'll try to send some pics.
Similar to American Vetch but not sure that is what it is. Hopefully some of our experienced gardeners can help!
You should have a Cooperative Extensive Service, They should be able to tell you what it is and how to care for them.
Good luck!
Wandering Jew- flowers are purple or wnite. Cutting will root easily in water or any potting soil that maintain moisture.
possibly monkshood
it looks like monkshood
Wandering Jew, Tradescantia
Fluminensis, it is a member of the spiderwort family and can spread rapidly in the right conditions.
Spiderwart
Looks like Passion flowers. Does it grow on a vine ? If so , that's your answer
SPIDERWORT or tradescantia, and it can be very hard to control in the garder
Patti, I had a vine with little purple flowers that I actually brought some in the house. Our landscaper later notified us that we had Nightshade growing in our forsythia bush. He said it is a stubborn vine and sometimes poisonous. If this vine has red or orange berries come Fall, then you might have nightshade.
It's Spiderwart. Tradscantia family, related Wandering Jew.
Thank you so much.
it looks like Tradescantia for me.
