These pop up along my fence row year round. They are probably weeds but pretty anyway.

Nice shot. That is "Spiderwort," or "Bluejacket" as it is sometimes called down your way - Tradescantia ohiensis.
Here is some information about that plant from the Florida Native Plant Society:
Spiderwort: Spring Beauty and Delightful Edible
"Dotting our backyards and fields and popping up along roadsides" the article says, which makes the plant sound much, much more common in Florida than it is here in Michigan.

Thanks Mike, and also for the link. I didn't know that they were edible.

Nice capture of a high quality "weed"!
Thanks Mike. Wildflower or weed. Potato Potahto.
