Ruth,
What is the difference between wild roses and bittersweet? Are they
similar? I have about a mile of grass covered trails which I keep
hedged and in some places the bittersweet now forms a tunnel. The
Russian Olives are in bloom now and very fragrant, we get the
bittersweet next.
Best,
Leland

Subject: Wild roses
Dad worked in the nursery/landscape business for several years. He said
wild rose/rosa multiflora was one of the worst weeds going. Some
nurseries sell it as "living hedge," don't buy it, it is nearly
impossible to get rid of. There is quite a lot of it in my MIL's
pasture, hubby can just get through it with the tractor and mower to mow
it off. Ruth

This soggy, cold, wet spring actually is good for one thing ;) getting
rid of wild roses. We wrap a sling around them just above the root ball
and yank 'em out roots and all with the back hoe. They're actually
pretty spectacular on the top of a ten foot bonfire!
