Default lamium invasive?


Do I dare? I purchased a Lamium Maculatum 'Pink Pewter' at my local big
box store this afternoon. The information I have been able to find lists
it as good for a groundcover in shady areas, but possibly invasive under
the right conditions. I'm trying to decide if I'm going to regret
planting this. The projected area is quite shady and is comprised of a
thin layer of good soil over clay. Not what I would describe as ideal
conditions. If this plant does go overboard, how tough will it be to trim
back? Are there runners? Does anyone have personal experience with this
plant going rogue? My other choice is to put this in a hanging basket.

Thanks, Jenn
