If you are a USian lawnlord, you may look down in the early Spring and see many tiny bluish flowers and determine that you have weeds to remove and pull out some weedkiller.

🐝 OTOH if you were trying to improve life for early #pollinators, very important, you would let some of these small but complex flowers have their time in the sun.

🦋 It's not native to the US and is weedy, but flowers even in late winter, so it can be an important pollen and nectar source when there are few other choices.

🍵 Foragers have been known to make tea or decorate foods with this edible plant and flower.

Common Field Speedwell (Birdeye Speedwell or Birds-Eye Speedwell are other names)
