Can be a nuisance and has to be curbed regularly.It also curls up very quickly if it's dry but spreads very fast in moist soil.

Yes, I have recently(less than two months ago) planted a low growing Lysimachia(loosestrife) in a problem area of our garde.Its wet and quite shady but this plant loves it there and has already covered a large area which is good in a way because very little else will grow there but , we will have to keep on top of it.

What a lot of colour...some lovely, big plants.
That purple leaf loosestrife looks spectacular with the yellow flowers contrasting against the foliage colour
