[PICTURES POSTED IN THE WRONG ORDER] Saint paul, MN. I took pictures AFTER raking and pulling out today. This patch hadn't been weeded for about 3 years and along the fence and rocks there were a LOT of REALLY deep taproots with a flimsy end, flimsy pink and white stems. Leaves are medium-wide, serrated, pointy end. This is my husband's house and I havent lived here until last year. He says he sees clusters of white flowers and purple flowers in that patch when the weeds grow to full size.
I thought it could be garlic mustard so I snapped the root no garlicky scent or much scent at all, just white, fibrous inside.
Leaves dont smell like much either. Neither have they taken over the entire backyard.
(Pictures could have multiple similar weeds? Idk)
Edit: welp, its creeping bellflower. MIL also identified it instantly. Guess I'm done for.
