The Virginia Spiderwort is a wildflower and can become invasive. It tends to spread seed to nearby areas several feet away and can be somewhat difficult to control. Additionally, it can become pretty weedy looking after flowering but may be cut back at that time.

The wild Spiderwort thrives on less attention and doesn't need any feeding.
