Comments (4)Yep, Bishop's Weed / Goutweed. Previous owners planted it in some of our flower beds and it's a battle to keep it contained. Next-door neighbor planted a variegated variety and I'm constantly battling to keep it out of my front yard flower beds. Also, plant nurseries in my city continue to sell it. It seeds and sends runners. Sorry I don't have good advice on how get rid of it easily. I use a dutch hand hoe and try to dig the roots out. It's my favorite all purpose weeding tool for garden beds. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PHC3NO/...See MorePlease help me identify this weed
Comments (3)I agree with @tsugajunkie z5 SE WI ♱. Though there's not much to go on for scale, assuming that's brick edging/paving in the photo, glechoma is the only thing it could be. By the way, the species is a terrible pest if allowed out of bounds. I haven't grown 'Dappled Light' (it might be a little more controllable), and wish I didn't have the ordinary pestiferous type, lol....See Moreskoldys
