I don't know how many remember my trying to find out what this plant was
when I took pictures of it in January

Well it was still in flower last week when it was mown off by some
zealous council worker cutting the grass despite it being up against the
wall.
I will have to watch to see when it comes into flower this winter.

comes to such things. "Go out and mow" doesn't have to be taken as
"destroy things in flower", surely?!

Anyway sorry if this duplicates my last email but keen to get rid of the
blessed stuff.
Just name the amount David and I can send you parcels of the horrible
thing. It's now endemic to my front garden after only two plants were added.

I agree, it's a pest. Pretty when in flower but a menace when it
spreads. I also managed to bring it from my mother's garden with a
white bluebell, and now it is multiplying.
Want any?
