decision on those mystery plants

Between the opinions of various people and of Google Images, I'm not sure if the mystery seedlings were bindweed aka wild morning glory, or regular morning glory. However, it's become irrelevant--I don't want either of them. They take over. I'd rather have my reclaimed space for what I want to grow. So I did a lot of weeding today and while it's not all gone, a good part of it is.

I have never thought of bindweed as wild morning glory before. And this is kind of ironic as I'm bewailing the fact that all my morning glory flower seedlings died while pulling out armfuls of bindweed that is strangling half of the garden.

I quite like the look of bindweed flowers but it does just turn into a carpet over everything. I certainly don't hate it as much as the bright greenish yellow thing the previous owner planted at the bottom of the garden that is competing to take over the garden from the other end. I think it is possibly a hop.
