Gout weed is impossible to get rid of, was here when I bought the house. Japanese knotweed is aggressively invasive, but somehow years ago a neighbor thought it cute and actually planted some, and steadily the underground root system made its way onto my property and spread no matter how we chop, dig, etc. I'm fond of the several Rose of Sharon that I planted, but didn't realize that little sprouts appear all around the bushes and must be pulled out regularly or it takes over the area.
