They are very different Maggyd but still take over the garden.

MYOB usually starts off as a houseplant which looks cute in a pot but then it gets everywhere. It is actually quite pretty but not something I'd want in my garden! I found this for you if it's any help: RHS ADVICE

Call me odd if you like ;D but I quite like MYOB as a house plant and in the garden too.

Between our garage and our neighbour is an old north facing wall, it is very damp at the base of the wall. MYOB loves growing there and makes a very uninteresting area look quite good IMO. ;D

For some reason, I have it too (I didnt plant it), it tries hard to grow out of the raised area of the patio at the edge of the GH ....It gets hot there, and very dry. Its clinging on, but it will never be a thug, IMO. ;D

I quite like it, until it takes over! Unfortunately though we have liverwort which isn't even as attractive as MYOB!

OK guys Im going to leave it I dont mind it either! it grows in my front garden mostly which gets full sun, were on a slope so it is well drained and gets quite dry in summer it winds itself round other plants like heathers iris and small conifers , so it suppressess other weeds and I can easily pull it up from anywhere I dont want it.

I have this odd plant that has followed me for 20 years and comes up in cactus pots, on the patio, in the lawn etc. It is creeping like a little clover and has yellow flowers. Anybody know what it is? It's a bit of a pest frankly.

Oh, and it dies away outside in winter.

Yes we get that stuff occasionally - for me it originates in M&Ds garden in Kent and as they looked after some of my plants for me when we moved, the little whatsit moved with us. Grrrrr!
