Default Cuckoo Pint

I have always had a few cuckoo pints around the garden but this year they
have come up just about everywhere. Can they become over invasive?

I suppose that depends on the size of your garden and whether you like
them or not. As you've probably seen, they have a lot of seeds so I
suppose it might be better for you to pull up the ones you don't want
before they can seed around.

Thank you, yes! Gardens over there look a bit sad - unusually for
Jersey. I'm using a new news program so am trying to get the hang of it
- I'm getting too old for this faffing around!
