Aegopodium podagraria, also known as ground elder, is a flowering plant in the carrot family that grows in shady areas. It is native to Europe and Asia, but has been introduced around the world as an ornamental plant. It is also known as herb gerard, bishop's weed, goutweed, gout wort, snow-in-the-mountain, English masterwort, and wild masterwort. This plant can grow up to 100 cm tall and has hollow, grooved stems with broad, toothed leaves. It produces small white flowers in spring and early summer, which are visited by pollinating insects. The fruits are small and have long curved styles. Aegopodium podagraria is considered a nuisance species and has been labeled as one of the "worst" garden weeds. It spreads rapidly through underground rhizomes and can outcompete native species. It has been introduced to many countries as an ornamental plant, but has become an invasive exotic plant in some areas. Controlling this plant can be difficult, as even small pieces of rhizomes left in the ground can grow into new plants. It is recommended to prevent its establishment in natural areas and to carefully monitor and remove it from gardens. A varieg
