pirl said:I agree 100% with Jennifer. I used to hate lamium and had a friend who loved it - so be it. Now that she's seen how fast it reseeds (within 150' of the mother plant), she's yanking it out. Some of us can endure seedlings of cosmos or verbena bonariensis while others can't tolerate hours and hours of picking out seedlings when we could be doing work in the garden that's much more rewarding. It's probably what makes gardens so unique.


And Lamium works great for me. Especially where I have it. My friend needed something aggressive to cover a large area fast. I suggested Lamium. Guess what? It will barely grow for her!! Go figure
