Just as prolific a seeder as the green-leaved form. It was discovered in local woodland by the late Christopher Lloyd of Great Dixter

I'd say take the leaves off - for three reasons.
Firstly, if left in situ they will take nitrogen form the soil as they rot down, depriving the plants of it.
Secondly, all sorts of 'nasties' will hide under the leaves (slugs for example)
Thirdly, wet leaves against stems will cause rots to set in
