Unidentified Lavender Star Flower on the Georgia-Florida Border

A worker on a sod/tomato farm in Decatur County, GA, spots a pretty flower in the border grass. It has dark green, clover-like leaves (larger, three sections), light purple to lavender star-shaped flowers rising an inch above the foliage, and an overall height of 8-10 inches. No photo is available.
