Wild Purple Flower ID
There are numerous flowers with multiple stems growing 6 or more feet tall in our yard and adjacent field. There are literally beautiful. Can't ID them with Google. No doubt the experts here will know what these beauties are. Thanks.

The following link says what you have is Ironweed.
Ironweed (Verbena noveboracensis) is commonly seen along roadsides and ditches across Tuscaloosa County. It grows up to 7 feet tall with clusters of tiny, dark purple flowers. Blooms July-September.
