Hi,
We are working to figure out which invasive polygonum is in the photo below.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance,
Patricia

Subject: What Is It?

Hello, Claudia.

My neighbor allerted me this latest invasion of our woods. This is a small green plant that has spread rapidly, and is shallow rooted. I have tried to use my 'plant identifier' app, but got totally confused. They eventually bear a small purplish flower on a spikey stem.

Would appreciated an identification, and some advice as to how to get rid of it. I am perfectly willing to pull them all up, but would appreciate a go ahead from you.
Thanks for your help.
Margo Sterling
