How do I get rid of morning glorys?

Yes, they are incredibly invasive! I have them in all my beds too. All I know to do is weed them out and not to let them flower. This year I started using round up on the ones that sprout away from my plants, and pull by hand the ones that come up amongst my plants. So far so good, I haven't lost one plant to them this year! I hate weeding, and I have had to weed them out every other day it seems, but each week it becomes less and less. As long as I can keep up with them, I'll continue to pull and kill. Next year will be when I reap the benefits of doing this... no flowers= no seeds,= no more pulling up morning glories! I do have places I let them go wild in. I have one garden under a tree that I let them have last year, and they grow in the underbrush at the edge of the yard, and I also let them climb up around the front porch.. they really are pretty. I added some moon flowers amongst them so I would have blooms in the morning and evening. I have had a lot of compliments on them. Mulch hasn't worked at all for me (in NC) it just grows up through it, or roots on it. ( I have a 6 inch layer of mulch over my beds!) Good Luck with yours! ;)

I have a neighbor who is actually cultivating these ~ even though they are the invasive, noxious weed versions of this plant.

They are miserable! The best approach is to stay on top of the weeding and heavily mulch the areas where they seem to be coming from. I used thick layers of newspaper and grass clippings which seemed to be very effective.

Unfortunately, once they get established into your beds, the only other way to completely get rid of them is to lift your plants out of the bed, and apply roundup in two applications (to catch both existing and newly sprouting morning glory). Once it looks like they are dead for good, you can replant your flowers and shrubs.

water them real well with gasoline and then add a match

You'll just have to pull them out. If you do it before the have a chance to flower and produce seed then you should be able to get rid of them all.

ohhh.. morning glories are my favorites. Why don't you just put up a trellis or something else you can lead a vine onto and let them grow upward and away from your other plants. They'll probably make your garden look beautiful.

y they r pretty
