The half-dozen rogers that are likely to take over your yard
if not kept under control are:
* Aegopodium podagraria -- better known as gout or bishops
weed. It is also called Queen Anne's Lace although this name
is often reserved for another member of the carrot family.
There are two forms of this ground cover plant, one plain
green (Gout) and the other variegated (Bishops).
