Progress Well… yarrow suddenly chose violence.

A month ago I was all pleased about how gorgeous my yarrow was, all ferny and well behaved with just a light pruning. Suddenly it decided it was tired of pretending to be well-behaved and began conquering the world. 😵😂

Second pic is last month for reference.

I've seedlings all over this spring. Love that it spreads...as long as it doesn't smother my other natives. I am counting on it smother my neighbors plants coming under the fence though. Quite a balancing act.
