Invasive

It´s only invasive if you don´t want it to grow there. I wish my 
Crocosmia "Lucifer" were more invasive. Here in my Massachusetts 
hill-country garden, it is very well-behaved. In my south Mexican 
garden, however, darned near everything is invasive, including the 
bananas that tried to grow in the front walk, and our primary tool is a 
machete.

I´ll never forget the year the U.S.Bureau of Land Management tried to 
refuse our taking a potted banana plant to the high Nevada desert at the 
Burning Man Festival, for fear that the seeds would get loose and 
produce an invasive banana forest. My daughter tried to explain that if 
seeds could grow there, we would be staring at an endless marijuana forest.
