Add Your Opinion About This Plant
Grow in a container. Every late winter, early spring, pull out the old roots and stems to get a tender new crop. Otherwise it gets terribly root bound. Let it duke it out with other invasives, they keep each other in check.

The USDA map of occurance of this plant shows it growing in every state and the whole southern tier of Canadian provinces except North Dakota. I wonder how they kept it out? I like this opinion Note: please don't use this box to post questions, you can do that on our forums instead. |
