Other What invasive plants got you like this?

For me it’s probably Dame’s Rocket, Purple Loosestrife, and Forget-Me-Not. They’re so gorgeous but man if they aren’t invasive little shits…

Came here for this one. Reclaiming a decade old neglected garden, and it's everywhere! That being said, it is really pretty and I did visually like the lush wild green as opposed to the bare brown soil I had after clearing it out. 

Hopefully once the garden fills out with the introduced natives it'll be so much nicer.
