    Hi All
    Please help thier starting to spread
    I have been trying to get rid of this vine but don't know what it's called
    Does it have a name and what is the best way to get rid of it.
    I have pulled it from the ground with no success

    Thanks

    Smilax, has a large underground network of running roots and tubers.
    Best bet is to dig up as much as you're able then spot treat with brush
    killer any resprouting sections missed.
