Hmmph! Depends where you plant them :(

I thought they'd be lovely scrambling through an orrible awthorne edge.....but completely forgot they'd search out the sun :o....result = I've got the roots, neighbours get the spectacular show every year :-[ ;) ;D

We have them in the garden and every year I try to get rid of them and back they come. You try to transplant them tho. We have given several folks a root and none of them have been successful.

Shirl, I found mine a Thug :( Not only does my neighbour have the flowers), but it seeded (or sommat) into a near-by  mound ear-marked for  courgettes....it needed a whole winter's application of Round-Up or Root-Out or whatever to kill the roots (after digging down for miles and miles to get to them. :o
