I made the mistake of planting it among all my other flowers, it is so invasive! I would yank it out by the roots and never did get rid of it! It even started growing across the sidewalk from where I planted it. If I had known previous to planting it I would of done if differently, like in a area by itself where it could take off in wide open space!

The best thing you can do is to keep pulling it, do let any of it go to seed ever again. I think you will eventually get it controlled.
