Hi,
I planted these small bulbs in the spring..all over. They sprouted like lilies and now are about 2 feet tall..spindly with small blue flowers. Looks like a tiny Iris and has what looks like two tiny yellow eyes and a tiny yellow mouth below the eyes. Weird description huh? They have really taken over my prized plants and I need to know what they are. Help. (Will try to send picture if needed).

Thanks,

Alice

Yes, Ron you are right and I do pull those weeds out every time I find one. My spiderwort is not so invasive and I really like it. LB
