I have been digging up lots of Ophiopogon (black grassy-leaved lily)

As I dug out the very deep roots, I found very many nodule-like pods
along the length of the root mass. If these behave as nitrogen-fixing
organs and can be safely left in the soil, then I'm not too worried.
However, if they all turn into masses of Ophiopogon plants and start to
take over the world, I shall be deeply concerned. Does anyone on urg
have experience with this plant? I would be really grateful for any advice.

There was a clump in my garden but it hasn't grown since I decided I
liked it!

Typical! Don't get me wrong, I do *quite* like it, especially when it
flowers; I just prefer to have a say in where it's growing. I could
always save you some, if you like, but I'd need your address to post it
.... unless you're likely to be in London in the near future.
