The trouble with having a wisteria



Is that next to a very old barn and four foot wall it causes a lot of
damage! Having tried to kill the plant the garden owner has been left
with a huge stump and insistent shoots coming up.
I have tried to dig it out as it had expanded towards a very old wall
and was pushing it out however trying to kill it completely has been
largely unsuccessful with bits coming up all over the place.

Yes i know they are lovely, yes i know it has wonderful flowers but next
to a 17th century wall it has its problems!
