All it does is over-grow - it's out of control!

I want it GONE forever!

Cut it down and dig out the roots.

have to wait for frost.

It'll never die - I've been trying to kill mine off for about 4 years only for it to reappear in a nearby position - grrr!

Cut it down, dig out the roots and sacn ground for new fuschia shoots which must then be dug up too.
Ad infinitum.

Borrow a dog and get said dog to pee on it every day, for months...seemed to work on ours .

Nasty chemicals?
