I agree with Seedfork. I live in Washington and English ivy is a real thug here, threatening our parks and forests. That does not mean it can't behave itself in other areas. Nor do I think we want to censor posts (smacks a bit of Big Brother to me...aging hippy...) Patty, no offense intended, you have a valid concern. Perhaps just noting where a plant is problematic would be a better option. I've added a comment to the generic entry in the database, and noted there are several named cultivars - perhaps those are less invasive than the general species variety (?). Invasive plants can be a bit of a hot button, to some they should be scourged from the earth, to others they are what I term 'jolly' plants (happy to party with anyone).
I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned.
