Gimmie plant ideas taht take over everything

ringstrue

I have this odd strip of dirt along my fence that is just weeds and rocks. I'm fine with something growing there that will just take over everything else, but its gotta do well around a few rocks and in dirt that gets plenty of moisture. I'd like for it to really take off this year, so nothing that takes a year or two to get really big.

TIA!

What ever you plant it will take a couple of years to fill in the space completely but my favorite take over the world even in bad soil plant is gooseneck loosetrife. It is not like purple loosestrife in that it wont escape your garden and become an invasive but it will spread under ground and out compete everything else.

Peppermint or Lemon balm.

Honeysuckle grows like weeds! Took over all the bushes in front of my house and we live by the beach, so the ground is very rocky and sandy. Smells good too!

Mint seems to grow like crazy, and I noticed last year that my lantanas were out of control!

phlox can grow pretty quickly

Mint, lily of the valley, bellflower (Campanula).

 Be careful if you decide to go with honeysuckle--find out which kinds are invasive in your area and avoid those like the plague.

How high do you want it? In my area english ivy takes over, and so does Bamboo (but be careful, it'll even come up through concrete).
