getting rid of Grape Hyacinth (Muscari) ?
We have a purchased a home with quite a nice garden, recently
renovated, but the previous owners did not remove all the muscari bulbs. In some parts of the garden they are in nice clumps and look great in the spring - we are going to leave these. In other parts they are stragglers all over the place, with no rhyme or reason, and they don't look very nice beside all the other plants and tend to overshadow these plants. The previous owners have added extra soil and mulch, so unfortunately the bulbs are now sometimes over 12" deep, hard to dig up and so close to the new plants that digging up these Muscari bulbs will definetely damage the roots of the other plants. We want to get rid of these Muscari. The only way I can think of is to just keep pulling up new shoots each spring until the bulb eventually dies off. Other than digging them up, which we consider dangerous, are there any other options? Any ideas appreciated. Larry |
