Brought the idea of invasive plants to the forefront as I picked some creeping purple flower that dominated a small area of a neighbours yard.

In my search for invasive species I came across the surprising and not so Yellow Archangel

1. Purple Periwinkle (Vinca major v. purpurea)
   I have just planted two cuttings in hedge behind the caravan and am now wondering about the wisdom of such
2. Variegated Yellow Archangel, Yellow deadnettle
(Lamiastrum galeobdolon subsp. argentatum)

Never thought it was a problem although I noted it's cover. It dominates one side of a stone wall so will now inspect and watch it.
3. Broad Leaf Bamboo
   There are six stands five of which I have planted. The other and one in an adjacent filed I will remove.
4. Nettles
Not a problem
5. Brambles
Although rampant and becoming domint in the triangle field, not actually a problem
6. Thistle
7. Docks
8. Ferns
9. Sycamore
