Is there a sure-fire way to get rid of Creeping Charley?
Vines are stubborn! Cutting only slows the growth, you have to get them out by the roots. As soon as they begin to grow, start pulling, making sure to get the roots on every one. In one or two summers, they should surrender.
keep every bit of new growth cut off as soon as it appears; the plant will eventually die from lack of nourishment. I have heard of people injecting herbicides into the stems of large invasive vines - like wisteria or poison ivy .. use a herbicide for 'woody; vines -- it's still glyphosate but in much higher concentration than 'round-up' for lawns
Thank you. We travel a lot and that is part of the problem but I will pull the vines out by the roots or dig them up. We have some wood chips to put around the base of the trees but I wanted to wait until the vines went away. Thanks again.
