I'm with Jo Ann, new year, new list (or same ones from before, plus three more!) And take some more pictures of your hunk of a grandson for us to enjoy!

He really is handsome.Almost went into modeling but the agency wanted 2 G for training. He was totally broke from college so took a pass.

WHAT? I have a friend whose daughter went into modeling and I know she didn't have to pay as they never would have been able to afford it!!! He can model for us! He is very handsome and gotta be a sweet grandson to help you out too! Some won't have anything to do with their grandmas.

By popular demand.


Poison ivy for starters.

I am soooooo glad we don't get that here. It's bad enough I have billions of morning glory and buckthorn seedlings to pull every spring. I wouldn't want to have to deal with that, too!

Okay, let me look up my weed...

We probably all feel that way about each other's weeds and pest plants. But PI is an itchy bugger. At least for me. Then there are the people who are not allergic to it at all. Imagine that!

at Susan. Dixie would likely turn 15 tennis balls into toast rather quickly.

98% of the yaupon holly. It has totally gotten out of hand, but would still like to have some.
What I call "lightening rods" in the yard....those pine trees grown to harvest. They are welcome on the back acres, but in the yard they could do some real damage if they fall.
Prickly pear cactus in the yard....again welcome on the back acres, but not the yard and especially in the dog run.

Thanks for continuing the worst weeds thread.
Mine havnt appeared yet but there just has to be some new ones.

Even during the mild days at the end of December I found more lamium in bloom and dug them up so fast.

Sadly, Cinquefoil (Potentilla hyparctica var. nana)

I brought it in here myself, not knowing it would run all over and smother the OTHER nice evergreen groundcovers I planted it among.

I had worked out a place to take it for reuse after I dig it up, but now I've lost transportation.
I do hate to kill a good plant just because it's in the wrong place. Guess I'll have to.

Besides my plant list, who can point me to a place to post it for free for postage?????

I have Lamium thats enough.

Here the lamium just replaces the Houttuynia, Aegopodium and Celandine that I have successfully eliminated. I never pull it up but always dig it up. I just won't take the chance the roots left behind will grow.

Creeping charlie (Glechoma hederacea)
has to be one of my worst weeds . If I don't get an early start it can and will cover several of my perennial beds . I also hate the way it loves mulch , if you try to smother it it just loves to spread even more. The roots fill the mulch and are impossible to remove.

My favorite herbicide is cardboard.

And that cinquefoil I naively planted works pretty much the same way as creeping charlie.

We might remove the word 'three' I would like to know of everything that you would like to get rid of. If it is a nuisance then maybe we should hear about it.

I was hoping Dixie would dig 15 small holes. You could rent her out as a bulb planter.
