I rewally don't have space to lift the plants and deal with an 'empty' flowerbed. Am pulling as much as I can find by hand and planted in some canes for the stuff to wrap itself round.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks

I really hate to say it, but in the end the best thing is to mark the plant you want to keep, and in the winter dig out the whole bed. remove the weeds and then replant the desirable plants. There really is no other way to deal with permanent weeds without a lot of hassle and using vicious weedkillers.
