Do you have non- native plants in your garden ? Invasive plants that just take over?

Yes

I have a very invasive member of the onion family, that spreads by seed and prolific bulb division. As it's small, it manages to get within other clumps of plants, so can evade detection.

Not all invasive plants need to be huge monsters.

Talking of which, a neighbour introduced duckwead into my pond this year

. It's native, so not a foreign invader but very annoying

I love ferns

Also, we had Japanese bind but persistence got rid of it, constantly digging it up, roots and trails and all.

Have oriental rhubarb, keeping that, it's pretty.

Yes some ornamental grass the previous owner planted. Despite pulling it all up, ensuring that any that sprout up don't go to seed the flaming stuff comes up every darn year
