What is your regret?
Mine of the moment is simple. Two years ago, I planted clumps of morning glories on the bean trellis that runs the length of my garden. About 8-10 feet of beans, then a morning glory vine. It was beautiful.
Two years later, I am still pulling thousands of morning glory seedlings. Left to grow, they would take over the entire garden.
Seemed like a good idea at the time!
Yours???

Roots found there way under the stone and shoots started popping up all over, including the neighbors yard. We ended up taking it all out. Very hard work.
But ... it was gorgeous while we had it. We saved several shoots and replanted in above ground pots. Still have them.
