Default How deep can ground elder survive?


My apologies - another question about ground elder but I have looked
back and can't find the answer to this one in previous postings.
(Although there have been so many I cold have missed it.)

I will be shifting some soil in my garden soon to make a bank. Some of
the soil I will be using has ground elder in it and I was wondering from
what depth the dreaded stuff can still survive and grow.

The bank will be about 5ft high with a base of about 8ft so stuff in the
middle at the bottom will be 3 to 4ft from a surface. I would be sorry
if in a few years/months time I discovered that it had crawled back out
to haunt me again!

TIA

Roderick
