Another vote for Aegopodium!

42 years ago when we moved into our "first home" near an old quarry, the 
"soil" was rocks and more rocks. A dear friend said he would share some 
plants that he could guarantee would grow. Young and naive we jumped at the 
offer.

42 years later (not so young but still naive), we are in the same house 
surrounded by Bishop's Weed. It is everywhere, resisting all attempts to 
eradicate it. Sadly, our friend passed away about 30 years ago, and we 
always feel a bit guilty when we battle "Don's gift." We figure he's up in 
that big garden in the sky having a good chuckle.

However, I didn't know it was edible. Thank you, Ellen! Maybe a little farm 
stand is in order?
