I can understand that. No one ever has trouble with their honey suckle
or wisteria looking bad. Invasive plants always look strong and healthy.


but as I age I'm thinking more varied
pines about. SLOW GROWING.

So what we want is a plant with the all the vigor of an invasive
species, but a slow growing vigor.

I've given up on that and am just settling for invasive species that
the neighbors don't complain about. I'll let you know when I find one!

Only thing I fight with vigor is poison ivy and some variegated
ground cover given to us years ago Oh and I also kill Ajuga on site.
