They're BAAAAACCCK!

OK, maybe not a zombie, but definitely close.

During COVID, we bought showy (?) milkweed from the Sacto native plant society. Planted it in a raised bed, cared for it, and it rarely bloomed. Never seemed to attract butterflies, which was it's whole reason for being. So this spring we decided to yank it out and plant some flowering shrubs. Dug down about 5 inches, pulled out any roots we could find, added a bunch of garden soil, redid the irrigation, and the flowering shrubs are doing well. Went out of town for a week and when we came back, there are milkweed stalks blasting up through the new plants. So we trim them down to ground level, and a week or so later, they're back. And healthier than ever.

I don't want to tear up the new bed to get rid of the milkweed. I can keep pruning it out. Is it worthwhile transplanting it? Any ideas on what to do next?

I have M365 personal (classic, no copilot), just me. I have shared a notebook of shopping lists with someone who has a MSFT account. If I update a notebook, adding to or modifying the list, it doesn't update for the other person. If she pulls the notebook page down you get the spinner like it's syncing, but it doesn't. It also does not throw an error message. If I sync to my Win10 box, I can see that it synced. Any ideas?
