Get Rid of Bindweed Forever
by Kathy Davie In my walks I’ve been noticing that a number of gardeners are struggling with bindweed and I thought I’d pass on my sure-fire “cure” for this admittedly pretty but frustrating and extremely prolific plant. Also known as field bindweed, perennial (no kidding!) morning glory, it’s Latin name is Convolvulus arvensis. You need four things to kill bindweed: Twist ties (like the ones on bread wrappers) Plastic baggies or produce bags without holes Round-Up And, patience The Process Gather up as much of a single bindweed plant as possible and stuff it inside the plastic bag Spray three to four squirts of Round-Up inside the bag Squeeze as much air as possible out of the bag and wrap that twist tie to keep the air out—and the bindweed in Joyfully massage that Round-Up onto as much of the plant as you can Leave it alone I’m serious.

A month of pure torture for both. For different reasons. This was cute, but too clichéd to really catch my interest. Fraser had Dana doing a too-abrupt one-eighty on her feelings toward Flint much too easily. There was no build-up, no finesse. MaryJanice Davidson’s “Love’s Prisoner” This finds Michael Wyndham trapped in an elevator with Jeannie Lawrence on the cusp of the full moon. And she smells too good to ignore. Clever and cute especially with Michael’s complete openness with Jeannie and his pack. Too funny. Alice Gaines’ “The Education of […]
