Fall Planting of Snow-On-The-Mountain?

I would like to purchase and plant some snow-on-the-mountain (Aegopodium podagraria 'Variegatum') ground cover, but I don't know if this can be done at this time of year. I am in Atlanta, GA, so it will be quite a while until we have consistent, freezing temperatures. Any information and advice will be greatly appreciated.

See if you can find someone who has snow on the mountain they can share. Around here, it spreads like crazy and TAKES OVER. Every year I turn down at least 3 people that offer some to me. Be sure to plant it where you don't care if it takes over

So everyone is telling me that this stuff is very invasive. I'm wanting to plant it under a tree where grass doesn't grow. If I have a border around a flower bed that cuts about 2 inches into the ground, will this stuff cross that border?
