One native I DON'T recommend

BRANCHED DICLIPTERA (Dicliptera brachiata)

Did I mention that I DON'T recommend this native? Well, I DON'T. We bought three at a native plant sale in October 2014. Oh. My. Goodness. This species reseeds and spreads without mercy! I am STILL pulling seedlings! Plus, they jump into other beds and pop up everywhere. When they've lived in one place for awhile, their rootball gets BIG and thick (see photos). I don't like to bad mouth native species, but this is one I could do without. I DON'T like it very much.
