White "green alkanet"
I have to ask what this easy method for removing it is? Where I live it has
roots about 18inches+ deep and pops up all over the place almost in the time
it takes to walk to the compost bin with the previous load.
Using it in Pimms sounds like a nice idea which I'd be totally sloshed if I
tried that as a method of containment ;-).

Well, a great many people like it. It grows like a weed around
here, but it is easy to remove from where you don't want it, and
is a decorative wild or semi-wild garden plant. The flowers make
an adequate borage substitute in Pimms, too :-)
