Barbara,
From my experience, it IS invasive, but that was just the thing for my
dry hard clay soil. It just doesn't die. You really do have to keep on
top of it and trim it back. Be careful of what you plant next to it--its
neighbor should be a strong guy too, to help keep it within bounds. So
far, this has been even better than the ivy that I planted as a
groundcover.
Maybe the colder weather is your friend on this plant. I've had this for
about three -four years, and just last fall transplanted to several new
areas, and they are taking off too.
