Such delicate little blooms! Do you find it as invasive as the note in the plants database indicated? I received seeds for Jacob's ladder in a trade this fall, but I'm wondering if it is the same variety. Looks pretty to me. I don't think I would mind a lot if it spread some! Welcome to Dave's and thanks for posting this picture.

This is the first year for this plant in my garden. I bought the seeds from Beautiful Blooms in Alberta. I assume she grew them and liked them, and I hope that they will survive in my zone 3 garden. They don't look like they're spreading too much.

I wouldn't wait for it to spread as much as 15 or 20 feet before I got rid of any plant. This is not a common plant in my area. I know of nurseries that want it, but not of any gardeners that consider it a problem here.

I have a plant with a flower just like this only pure white. The foliage, however is like a miniature lambs ear. Anyone know what it is? I did not plant it and it is in a lot of places. Zone 7, DFW, Texas
