I live in Western NC and have both Phlox and Dame’s Rocket, didn’t know DR is invasive, some years I’ve let a large patch go to seed, other years I’ve mowed it down; haven’t had much trouble with it, it’s so easy to control compared to something really viciously invasive like Bittersweet Vine and Kudzu. Both kill bushes, shrubs, huge trees, slow moving people and abandoned houses. At least Kudzu is edible, though. Nothing’s worse than Bittersweet.

It is really nice looking flower, but is extremely invasive. Perhaps some of you do not know but it may very well be illegal to cultivate an invasive plant in your location. People need to take a bit more responsibility with their actions. This is one of the ways native species become extinct.
