Douglas Hunt on Aug 22, 2013I think I spent half the time in my New York garden pulling up Virginia creeper. And now it has followed me to Florida, but seems much less prolific here.Helpful Reply

Taryn on Aug 23, 2013Also called Japanese Holly. Down here in Florida is is VERY invasive and very hard to get rid of. You can pull it down but it keeps coming back - no way to get rid of it completely. It's in a neighbors yard and they don't control it so it keeps coming into my yard. I hate it.Helpful Reply

Jim Ginas on Aug 23, 2013So question all: Will it kill all other plants? Behind my NEIGHBORS yard and all her trees and bushes behind her fence BUTT up to her fence..... for me, I have my fence 5 feet in from my property line (always do that) and have KILLED all brush in that 5 feet so the brush and trees behind MY YARD which then is in Community property won't touch my fence or plants....... It looks nice to me and if it overtakes all the brush behind my fence (remember, 5 feet back!), then for ME it looks nice, and I'm hoping NO HARM. ????Helpful Reply
