@Fritillaria2 Fair enough. I understand ripping out Lythrum salicaria around here, and I'm no fan of Ailanthus... and yes, I remove dandelions when they're in the wrong spot in my garden.

But one of the local public parks near here leaves their dandelions in the grass, and you get sudden explosions of colour, then seeds, it's lovely.

Nice to meet another gardener type person on here! I am nowhere near as good as active as I'd like to be, but well met. :)
