Well, aside from the colour, it doesn't really have anything in common with Viper's Bugloss (which is what we call that weed).
Heath is a mixture of Erica and Calluna species (heathers), Ulex (gorses) and lots of grasses and other plant species all mixed in together. Its a naturally evolved ecosystem that supports a large number of increasingly rare fauna in the British Isles, including the the Silver-Studded Blue...
...a butterfly that has Protected status here in the UK. 'Heath' is the lowland cousin of the Scottish moors. Much of Wimbledon Common once used to be a heathland.
It's not a sterile monoculture of a single invasive weed.
