Mock strawberry (Potentilla indica)

Inedible strawberry.
Thoughts: I'm sure this was a pretty border plant, but now it's so overrun with weeds I don't like it. If I'm going to have strawberries, I'd like to eat them.

Id: The leaves are more elliptical and serrated, so I think it's Potentilla, not Waldsteinia.
 It seems like the genus Duchesnea has been incorporated into genus Potentilla (Cinquefoils). Not P. sterilis, which seems to have white flowers. Maybe indica. Native to Asia. Listed at invasive.org, but not specifically in Georgia.

Creeping Phlox (Phlox stolonifera)

Thoughts: Purple/white with really nice flowers. blooming March 10, 2010.


Id:  Evergreen, needle-like leaves. Planted in part-shade. Stoloniferous, seems to confined by the black garden fabric. Native to southeast US.
