So how do you get rid of it?

This may be a dangerous question for this forum - especially with all the vine lovers and the MG wars going on... Well here goes...

Don't get me wrong - I love vines as much as the next person - it's just that I've been invaded. I've worked hard to establish new flower beds this year - hauled rocks, planted flowers, and raspberry bushes, battled the drought. Then we get a bit of rain - praise God! I woke up one morning and the morning glorys have taken the yard over. They've litterally covered the beds out in the yard and now next to the deck - they are reaching toward the door in search of raw hamburger. I know pulling is one answer - but how do I keep them from taking over again - they've reseeded everywhere!
DH was funny last night - in a big blustery voice he saids - "next time you hook up with that crowd of DG folks - ask them how to get rid of this stuff - somebody there will know! Plant the stuff on trellis' anywhere ya want - but get it outa my raspberries!"

Help me Obiuan Kenobi - you're my only hope

Ihate to say this, but pulling them out is your only hope. I still pull hundreds of seedlings in the spring/early summer. You can't even leave one, or they come up everywhere soon.

One thing that helped me with the re-seeding was to grow them on strings. At the end of the season I layed a tarp out under them, cut the strings and dragged the whole mess away. I still had some re-seeding but it would have been 10 times worse if I had tried to yank all those vines down.

You might want to try a pre-emergent herbicide in hubbies Raspberry patch ... like "Preen". It will prevent the seeds from germinating.

My DH tried to help clean up the garden fence last year. I had some MG's growing on the far side on the fence. He pulled all of the vines of the fence and piled them very neatly in a pile. Then he proceeded to drag them to the gate and up to the edge of our deck. When I came home he told me they were out there, in case I wanted to get any seeds off of them. I almost cried.

Oh, well. MG's make pretty ground cover too. :-)
