Acanthus Mollis Whitewater.....

Why Dd?

They start growing all over the place, really difficult to dig out, the roots go down a long way, you have to get every little piece out!!

My ordinary green version is like that, Dd. I really must have a go at it. I usually try to contain it in a circle.

We have the green one too B that is how I know it is a pain, decided to take it out and grow a variegated one.

Remember Louise? It's the bane of her life. I manage to control mine, just.

Thanks Dd....

What happened to Louise did she just decide to go?

I'm afraid she's completely lost her gardening mojo. We do get together on an irregular basis still, though, and email each other, too.

Oh dear how sad, I cannot imagine what I would do without the love of gardening.....too awful to think about...

Yes, I think she'd be happier if she could get it back from wherever it went. We used to have such fun going round the GC and choosing plants! Her garden was a picture, too.
