    Lucky, I usually have terrible results with brassicas - I often can’t even get seedlings to establish without something trying to eat it at all times… Mustard and rocket no trouble though.

        Lettuce can also be very prolific when allowed to seed. I currently have a fight for garden dominance between the parsley and the lettuce which seeded themselves this year.

        Garlic chives are a strong contender to be in that list too!

        E: also agree with Rusty’s assessment of lettuce. Have seen it grow in gravel pavements and get quite hectic under a downpipe. Mizuna (and some other mustards) can be like that too
