Thanks! The rock garden/hill on the front of the property drives me crazy. We tore our hands to shreds pulling out as much bittersweet, grass, and weeds that we could. It looked great in early May--only the flowers and some ground cover remained. Then the rains came (and are still coming). Then the sunny, humid days came...then......BOOM! The bittersweet roots sprung shoots and the whole things starts over again
I'm going to eventually do it over, but pot the flower bulbs next year. Then I'll kill the whole shebang with RoundUp. I know it's pesticides, but that's what kills them so that's that. Then ill let eventually replant the bulbs and uncover the many boulders that have been buried by years of untamed overgrowth. I've got the vision in my head--looking forward to eventually getting there.
Stay tuned for the retaining wall pics!
