What plants have others regretted introducing into their gardens?

Wild garlic without a doubt.(see earlier thread) It came diguised in a
mixed packet of small rockery bulbs given to me a present. For a few
years it behaved itself and then, in no time at all, it was
everywhere.

Also the small creeping euphorbia. It is controlable, with effort, but
when clearing out a bit one day I foolishly wiped the sweat from my
eyes and within a few minutes I was on my way to hospital with
alarmingly swollen eyes - the original bug-eyed monster! I am more
careful now.


Ouch! Sorry to hear about the eyes .. sounds really painful. I had the
galloping euphorbia once, but I already knew about its toxicity. It's
surprising how many people don't know. I was talking to local landscapers
yesterday who didn't even know the plant. I put them very much in the
picture, and I hope they'll be careful now.
