Yes. Pops up on my allotment too.

It's ugly and stinks when it grows in the lawn and you mow over it. Here's one left at a neighbor's place where they use that horrible orange mulch. I already removed two other bulbs in that spot by pulling then placing them in the trash.

I'd take the Allium over the mulch any day ;-)

Or the cypress.

They planted two Leylands side by side there! Stupid... if you ask me.

Hi there

thanks a lot, so now I know what I pull up with success ocasionally.

are the Leylandii those mega fast growing hybrid? Have a nice long week end,

cheers, Lin

Yes - an actual law against planting Leyland hedges was eventually passed in Britain, so many towering walls of gloom were being seen in unsuitable locations.

Gloom is in the eye of the beholder.

I dislike Leylands and much prefer native species. However, a homeowner in this area requested all the Thuja planted on her property be removed. She disliked the look of them with the cones...complained about the brown look . so replaced with the sterile Leyland. The garden center that did the work was dismayed and told me about it.

If you're talking about an eastern North American location Thuja occidentalis does cone to excess - except for certain cultivars particularly the highly prevalent 'Smaragd'.

However Wall of Gloom has disease problems back there. (And it is browned by cypress twig moth in my area). USNA recommends their 'Green Giant' introduction as a replacement for the cypress.

Yes. Likely it was the eastern one . I did not see the trees but from what the nursery owner told me..... the trees appeared messy to the owner.
