This is the Creeping Bellflower. The pic is from our garden of last year, but it’s back again this year:
And how has it attained the exalted title of this post? From iNaturalist:
This plant is native to Europe and western Siberia and it has been introduced to North America, where it has become an extremely invasive weed. It chokes out other plants, and eliminating it is nearly impossible due to its multiple propagation mechanisms.
Sound familiar? I might point out it’s actually fairly attractive on the surface and has wormed its way to the heart of our political system garden, and is going to be damned pernicious.
