Our Aegopodium isn't so easy to pull - especially once it works its way into another plant! (ugh!) And we know the false astilbe as Persicaria polymorpha too but became confused when we looked it up to make sure... I think the name has changed... unless it's changed back! Hi Layanee!

It is beautiful. I have the variegated and I think it is just as invasive! Easy to pull though! I think that false astilbe is Persicaria polymorpha. I have a lovely speciman myself. I did read that there is a real devotee to Persicaria p. who plants it in large groupings. I think that would look grand!

I don't think I'd be performing any spiderweb rescue missions for those guys! (the saying "she wouldn't hurt a fly" doesn't apply!) Thank you, Rebecca! – Your neck of the woods sounds dangerous!

Lewis is too cute! Much better than one from the Adirondack Air Force: black flies, mosquitoes, deer flies and no-see-ums! You can tell I live in the neck of the woods, LOL!

And I hope you end up in this neck of the woods soon! Yolanda, Bad hair day is right! Or maybe they're punkrockers who spent hours to get that effect... Brendan, I think his name is Lewis. I really hope (after rescuing him) that he survived the giant flying leap he took from my finger! He's so teeny! weeny! and the drop was miles... Carol, Thank you!
