Karma

Over the years, I’ve written (fairly clearly I think) about not allowing certain kinds of plants into your garden.
There are the outright garden thugs. And these include plants such as Crown Vetch, Goutweed (variegated and green leaf) and Artemesia ‘Silver King’. This would certainly include grasses such as Phragmites (variegated ribbon grass) and a few others that deserve to be planted far from my gardens.
Simple garden thugs would include a range of vicious spreaders such as Euphorbia epithymoides (Spurge).
My new garden has all of these planted by previous owners.
Karma.
Whatever it was, whoever it was to. I apologize profoundly and sincerely.
I think it was good Karma for your poor yard. It surely deserves someone with a green thumb to take care of it and love it back to health!
I know what you mean about garden thug’s we spend most of our gardening time fighting ,honeysuckle .Asian bittersweet common privet ,multi flora rose ,and now mile a minute weed .Its taken my wife and I 20 years to get a handle on about 1/2 of our acre which was an impenetrable jungle when we arrived
