Default Getting rid of Calla Lillys

Well, if anyone lives in the San Jose, CA area, send me an email and
if you dig me up, they are yours....They are currently blooming and
are about 3 feet tall.

Otherwise, I'll try Roundup on a few and see if that works.

We moved into our new home last and year and last spring an entire
area of Calla Lillys errupted near a fence. The area is about 3 feet
wide and at least 15 feet long. Full of Lillys, we wanted to use the
space for something else so I cut them off, but I guess that didn't
work because they all came back again and keep growing.

Any ideas on how to get rid of them? Round-up?

Thanks!


Lord A'mighty! I can't imagine anyone wanting to get rid of calla
Lilies! I don't think they're hardy where I live so the winter would
get rid of them for me.

Those things are insanely expensive to buy, I think if you posted a
"free calla lily bulbs, you dig" and people would take care of that
problem for you RIGHT NOW!

Some associate them with funerals and so may not want them, but other
than those few, I think most anyone who knows what they are would
fight over 'em ;-) Wish I was close enough, and in a climate they'd
like, I'd be right over with a shovel.
