If you got a plant where the roots are all entangled with weeds and can easily dig it out do so and then wash off all the soil. You should then...
California poppies would happily self seed around in sunny spots as well, quite a few varieties to choose from very bright orange and yellows to...
@Goldenlily26 Emily McKenzie is quite well behaved in my experience. Lovely orange/deep red flowers and very attractive buds
I take that approach with a lot of weeds too @Stephen Southwest. We did the blitz on the greenhouse site as it was completely overrun with...
Yes of course, I always take into consideration a posters location when reading replies. I guess I assume we all do. There are so many variables...
If it’s an unplanted area then it is possible to get rid of bindweed. We successfully dug out bindweed with only the odd reoccurrence from the...

I hadn’t realised that Lobelia is now on the naff list. I love it, but I only use it in pots. Am also a convert to (some) begonia partly I can get...
It’s too small for a tree. I would suggest 60 x 100 as the smallest. Tree or shrub roots aren’t going to do any damage unless too near a building...
