Houttuynia cordata

LOL.. I have this Dawn and have been trying to stop it from growing round a water feature because it smothers it , I can't get rid of it , I wonder if it would grow in your clay soil round your lake to help break it up ?

This is by the pond Amy, if it goes mad it will be a bonus, lol. Maybe your's needs a little Roundup, dare I say that word.

Ours so far is very well behaved, thank goodness, dont like the smell though.

Weird smell isnt it Dotty, very strange.

I am now wondering why on earth I bought this same plant for after hearing about it lol...Still, it looks nice but will dig it up and pot it I think...
