(For
peoriapeoriawhereart. This isn't a great photo, but you can see them better than in the daffodil pic.)
We get red and henbit deadnettles, commonly, and here they're a spring "weed" in lawns and pastures. The summer heat isn't agreeable to them, so they say Mission Accomplished and fade back until next spring. Wise!

Lamium purpureum
