Just Another Weed

Most my 'fancy' garden flowers are finishing now for the season or have been photographed so often that they are seeming kind of boring to me. So now, I seem to be resorting to photographing weeds. Found this one beside the trail on another walk . Not sure what it is, but it looked pretty, in a modest sort of way.
A lovely wild flower!

But surely this is lavender, certainly a beautiful weed. Did you sniff it?

Lovely close-up! Pretty with the purple against the dark background! (I just checked with my plant ID app (Picture This): purple loosestrife. Does that sound right?)

@busylady I didn't sniff it close up but I didn't notice a lavender scent in the air.

@365projectorgheatherb Yes could be purple loose strife, I have heard that we are seeing more and more of that inOntario.

A lovely soft shot. I think it is Purple Loosestrife, which unfortunately is highly invasive in Ontario and many other parts of North America. It’s always pretty stuff that’s bad…
