Over the years I have planted bits of plants I liked the look of, but

cambrica and a lamium. This latter came about 20 years ago as a 9
inch piece stolen from a big garden!
What plants have others regretted introducing into their gardens?
Can't believe no one's mentioned mint. It broke out of a concrete
planter and was everywhere before we'd seen.
Marjoram is quite a pain in the herb bed.
Wormwood! If you let it seed.

We have woodruff in many parts of the garden but I really love it. I think
it could be a pain in places where others things have to fight with it,
though.
