Aegopodium podagraria, commonly known as bishop's weed or ground elder, is a spreading perennial plant that is native to Europe and western Asia. It is widely considered an invasive species in many regions because it spreads aggressively through underground roots and can overtake gardens and natural areas, making it difficult to control once established.

Common Name: ground elder
via GBIF · Kew POWO
Aegopodium podagraria, commonly called ground elder, is a species of flowering plant in the carrot family Apiaceae that grows in shady places. The name "ground elder" comes from the superficial similarity of its leaves and flowers to those of elder (Sambucus), which is not closely related. Other common names include herb gerard, bishop's weed, goutweed, gout wort, snow-in-the-mountain, English masterwort and wild masterwort. It is the type species of the genus Aegopodium. It is native to Europe and Asia, but has been introduced around the world as an ornamental plant, where it occasionally poses an ecological threat as an invasive exotic plant.
