If it's what I think it is it has reddish roots that go down a long way, too far to dig it out, it's also perennial and was a right pain. However, I can't remember it's name. A good case for using Glyphosate though. -- Regards Bob Hobden |

I never thought to find out what it was, just a weed to me. Now I hope someone does know what it is. So. Cal, zone 9 or thereabouts. |
