Easily grown and impossible to kill, the sunroot is an amazingly useful and beautiful plant that belongs in every garden.

First time I've heard that term. Can you name any others? Is spotted Joe Pye Weed one?

I imagine Joe Pye Weed could make a decent fortress plant.

Anything that puts on strong growth and forms a very dense hedge when planted in a row can be a fortress plant.

Oh, okay. Thanks, that's an attribute to think about when planning plantings, too.
