I've been fighting these weeds for a year and they are winning. Our backyard was landscaped after the destruction of hurricane Rita. It seems that this horrible weed is now unstoppable.
I've weeded very carefully and tried to all of the horrible roots and cleared my bed twice but the weed seems to come back stronger.

It is growing into my plants and under the paving stones and I'm at wits end. Poison was not an option because of my dog but maybe that is the only way.

Any suggestions would be so appreciated. thanks in advance.
