Bonfires

In article , writes I wouldn't, and haven't had them surviving the heap in over 30 years. Obviously my compost heap isn't warm enough! Mine is. I have had it smouldering internally once or twice. But I still would not put bindweed in until it had been cooked for a couple of weeks on a concrete path. Top growth dies easily enough but the roots are surprisingly resilient. Definitely had bindweed survive so always burn it. Any clever suggestions for how to eliminate bindweed from a difficult to access shrubbery patch ? It includes a large pyracantha so treatment of the problem is both interesting (Chinese usage) and painful. The thorns will go through my gardening gloves if I ever make a mistake. I get most bindweed out of there every year, but it would be nice to eliminate it once and for all. Any suggestions? Regards, Martin Brown |
