    • I love these tiny flowers

    • Mia – I like the flowers, too, but not the plant. When they first arrived in my yard a number of years ago, I thought “What a lovely flowering ground cover” and I made the mistake of letting it stay. Now it is trying to take over my entire yard. It puts down roots at the nodes, and so you’ve got to pull it carefully or you’ll leave little rooted pieces behind.
