Butterfly Garden

Plant ID

10 years ago

I found this growing in my side yard, It appears to be some sort of vine. I was getting ready to hoe it when I got a notion to ID it first. I battled Bindweed for YEARS because, at first, I thought it was a neat vine with pretty white flowers. I do not want to let it turn into a monster, but I dont want to kill it if it's a volunteer from a nice plant.

It does resemble Bindweed.
I'm battling that on the job, growing in stone yet, and it IS quite a monster.

It looks to me like hepatica, a pretty wildflower.
