    I have a mother of millions that is about four feet tall!! I didn’t plant it, just showed up and is proceeding to be so very invasive!! It’s everywhere in my yard now!! Yikes 😬

    Yes they can get out of hand very quickly. I always keep them in pots and be mindful of the roots making their way through and into the ground. Same with all of them climbing or not IMO.

      Seeds carried by the wind maybe?

      That’s what I think!! I don’t know what to do to get rid of them!! They are taking over all my outside plants and the grass, even container plants that I have outside!! Any ideas??

      Hmm. That sounds like it’s going to be a tough one. Does pulling one plant out bring roots with it and how deep do they go? I’ll be interested in seeing the pictures.

      It’s crazy cuz the tall one I told you about literally started in a wagon, took over those plants jumped out of the wagon and like a few feet later just decided to stop and grow there!! Yes they are very rooted!! I live in FL so it’s sand under the grass mainly, I’m sure they love that!! They are all under and around cement borders!! I won’t even put a container plant anywhere near them but that’s getting harder and harder to do!! I most definitely have to get rid of them as prey as they are they are so so invasive!!

      Haha yeah it “fell off the wagon“ alright. It’s a tough one that. Would be nice if it behaved, but it’s not playing well at all. Nice of the COT to know it’s boundaries.

      I haven’t other then potting them and giving them away!! Any thoughts?? I don’t have it in me to kill them!! That’s not the only place they are mind you they are everywhere on an acre 1/2 lot!! I was also thinking about potting in nursery pots cuz I have a million and selling some to support my plant buying habit!! What do you think??

      Bahaha 🤣 Should I tell the ppl I give them to that they are extremely invasive and they will most likely kill the entire lawn and ANYTHING they have planted in your yard even if it’s in a container!?!?
