  Yeah, most berries turn into birds and not plants, if you know what I mean!

  A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

  Mine has never seeded in my garden. Not once. And the birds never seem to eat the berries. They all wither and rot on the hedge.
  

  Pigeon's gobble them up voraciously... I had one get so fat it could barely fly off, although that might also have been down to mild intoxication.
