Update to "Pretty, but noxious"
A list of invasive plants in Virginia can be found at:
http://www.dcr.virginia.gov/natural_heritage/documents/invlist.pdf
Another invasive (but moderately so- it is not difficult to pull) is pictured above- the obedient plant Physostegia virginiana- this plant is a native, not an exotic, and can spread quickly through a garden. It is pretty, but think about it before you buy one!
Happy gardening!
