Gosh... I'm lousy with trees. If you could post a picture on the ID forum I bet someone here could identify it for you.

Darius, the blue woodruff is an annual. I haven't tried that one yet.

I haven't had too much trouble with it being invasive. Some years a lot of it dies out over the winter. It does spread ... but not too bad.
