    Juncus effusus invasive - you should see my sheep 'grazing' fields. Wall to wall rushes. Don't let them get a foothold, get rid quick!
    The same for the sedges. They can be relatively well behaved in dry ground, but really get the bit between their teeth when it's wet.
    Most bog plants have thuggish tendencies, but some take things to extremes :)

    We've got that in the wet bits! It seems however to have a very shallow root plate so is quite easy to dig out. Even my OH can dig them out (but she'd rather I did it!).
