Excellent, thanks so much!

Sorry but isn't elaeagnus considered invasive?

Not from what I have read so far but now I will domore research!

Only certain species of Elaeagnus and only in specific locations - invasiveness is not universal :-)

thanks, that is exactly what i was just reading. it doesn't seem to be taking over at all. the former owner of my home was a longtime member of the local garden club and i wouldn't think she would've planted anything in her yard that would be harmful. i just wish she were around to help me identify everything!
