Me and my girlfriend do not know much about gardening. We have been
trying to keep our flower beds at the front of the house tidy but
every few weeks we keep on getting green fern like plants/weeds
growning everywhere. We pull them up but the just grow back again
here a couple of pictures of them

can anyone identify these or give me tips to get rid of them for good
Regrettably you have Mare's Tails, which is the most ineradicable weed next
to Japanese Knotweed and Grouuund Elder. Do not try to dig them up, as you
will leave behind fragments of broken root, all of which will regrow. I
know. I had the stuff.
Nothing other than painting the green parts with glyphosate will kill them.
