Some got into the little planting areas where my bulbs were in our last place - it was murder. The more you try to pull it up the more it digs it's heels in. The stolons radiate out in all directions and put down new roots everywhere even in the stoniest ground. You think you've pulled up every last bit and it rears it's ugly head all over again -a lost battle!

I know its bit of a faff but translocated weed killer is the best way to get it under control, pulling at it just encourages it to travel. If it has got among your plants you have to be careful of over spray, cut the top and bottom off a small plastic bottle, put it over the weed and spray into the cut bottle.
Any weed killer with Glyphosate will do, as it travels into the plant and is non residual, and once it hits soil becomes inactive. Do you think this qualifies us for a lottery grant.
