We got rid of the verbascum, and now we have two species of fleabane. How do we get natives back?

I think I got the ID wrong. Maybe Erigeron sumatrensis (tall to 2m).

Agree, photos are probably not quite good enough so I was going with your ID, but there is a lot of sumatrensis about at the moment.
