There are different sorts of Eupatorium, some are good garden plants and some grow wild. There are quite a lot growing around the Norfolk Broads, very pretty.

I grow Eupatorium Little Joe - it's a lovely plant that seems happy with very little care.

Yes, it's very well behaved.
I have 2 patches of them. They don't wander too much and give some late summer flowers that butterflies enjoy. They also look good when not in flower with the red stems and dark wrinkled foliage.
I leave the seed heads on and birds visit over winter for the seeds.
