I find it is easy to get rid of them , just be careful to pick up all the tubers - they dont grow very deep, and they are clustered
closely together.
Any you miss, which grow up afterwards are very easily pulled up, or chopped down.

A pity they wont flower in my climate - perhaps they would if grown in a greenhouse ?
