Been working on the back yard today. We ripped out a big tree stump last summer and I've got lots of dandelions growing in the dirt currently. I have noticed two weeds that I've never seen in our yard - just wondering if they are safe and edible!

One has small purple flowers with red/green leaves and the other is just green leaves. 20150418_123540.jpg20150418_123633.jpg20150418_123652.jpg20150418_123648.jpg

The blue wildflower is winter speedwell. Looks like the next one MIGHT be burr clover. The last one is edible, but can't remember the name...prickly lettuce, sow thistle, one of those.

Thank you so much for the ID! The only edible one is in the last picture? The one that resembles dandelions? The other two won't be edible? I'll end up pulling them. Sorry for the stupid question, just wanna make sure I know which is edible. :oops:
