Had this bad boy pop up in my yard in southern MN. Only mowed 5 times last year and none at all this year. I’ve pulled a ton of invasives – last year was Canada thistle, this year is Queen Anne’s lace, sweet clover, and more burdock (yay), but this is worth it!

Zone 4b in case anybody is wondering.
Heal-all! So beautiful. I have some in my lawn in Eastern Canada 6b
Isn’t that also called All Heal or Self Heal?
I have this all throughout my yard (near Ottawa Canada). Long lasting blooms too
Never had this and then suddenly I have this in a lot of places this year. Very welcome to it!
This is self-heal or *Prunella vulgaris*. The plant more commonly referred to as purple prairie clover is *Dalea purpurea*.
This is heal all, not prairie clover. Very cool though!
