| I'm on the east coast, I am concerned this might get invasive, for I have very rich soil. |

| I don't think it would be too much of a problem. It is more of a bush and it keeps to itself for the most part. Anything can become a problem if left unattended or if it isn't desired. It is a pretty cool plant and thrives in some pretty tough conditions. I have give about 100 plants in my 1 acre sand prairie and am in no way concerned of it taking over as I have grasses for it to compete with. |

| Thanks Nick. I have another area that is heavy clay soil. Will they survive there? |

| I think they like well draining soil. But I deal with ones that are indemic to central Texas and their might be regiona; differences. |

| Not here in Minnesota. I love it as it really shows nicely in the garden. |
