Know what you mean Margaret. I have grass patches and ground cover that has gone nuts. We finished enclosing the new joined beds today, finishing up just as the rain became more than a slight nuisance. I dug up an arc about 5' long and 12" wide where I had lilies planted. In front of them up to the rock border to keep out grass, the grass invaded anyway and mixed it up with my lamium ground cover. What a mess. I thought the grass had gone on through the lilies but it was stopped by the second round of edging I put in the bed, just was so long and draping it looked like it had grown on past. I think I will just dig up the whole mess and knock the dirt out and pitch grass roots and ground cover and all. Not worth the risk of reintroducing grass roots. I have plenty of sedum to plant there to replace the lamium. And the sedum is a little better behaved.
