There is a fourth species which has not been mentioned yet: M. nyctaginea. I know this as a hardy, perennial weed.

Friends,
Yes M nyctaginea is a pernicious weed here in Kansas City metro that I put ALL the time. Not at all ornamental in my eyes, but I’d love to see someone try hybridizing for a hardier M. multiflora. which is NOT hardy here, but easy from seed.
