I’m UK based for what it’s worth
Yes, very. It’ll take over and shade out trees if you let it.
Thanks, I suppose what I’m asking is, should it be treated in the same way as Japanese Knotweed and Himalayan Balsam? I do attack the stuff in my own garden but should we be doing the same in parks?
I heard RED Gardens on YouTube complain a lot about it and they’re based in Ireland. So it’s hard to get rid of.
It’s horrible stuff, takes a lot of time to rip out. I’m just making sure I get it out of my garden before it blossoms but my neighbours aren’t gardeners and it comes through the fences so I’m fighting a losing battle there!
I was curious about whether we should tackle it in the wild mostly
Invasive? Not sure if call it that but it’s a bastard and hard to get rid of entirely if you don’t keep on top of it
Oops, I guess I should get rid of that. I’ve had one growing up my chicken coop the last few years, but I always thought it was just a morning glory. It has been spreading a bit.
It’s the most often complained about weed in our garden because it can’t be composted, it will happily just replant itself in your compost pile.
