How to get rid overgrown mint
, you might have to paint the leaves of the mint with weedkiller.  I did this last year by mixing glyphosate (Roundup or similar) with wallpaper paste and painting it onto creeping buttercup that was infesting some low-growing conifers and heathers.  It by Linda Dyrda

Help
better weather this year and hopefully it will then produce plumes for you again.  I had a huge clump until a couple of years ago but it outgrew its space and began to die, so I helped it on its way with a bit of glyphosate.  The stump will take years by David 4

Getting rid of Bindweed
of bindweed, that's rivalling the brambles for world domination (or back garden domination, anyway).  Question is, how do I get rid of it.  I'm going down the glyphosate, then cutting down  & digging out roots for the brambles.  I've been told that bramble by Mummy Muddy Paws

Bluebells- Spanish or English?
,  any ideas ?  The Spanish bluebells that come up in my garden are much bigger than the English ones and don't smell so nice. I try and dig them up, keeping the flowers for a vase, but they are not easy to get rid of.  I use glyphosate, doctored with a by Hollie- Hock

how to get rid of ivy in a wall
footprint and all that, it is damaging the wall. What can I do?   Keep spraying all new growth with glyphosate.  Don't pull-out the sprayed growth, as the glyphosate needs to work its way to the roots.  It will take a long time before the ivy dies completely by janfran

often but now can quickly be dealt with I agree with Muddy Fork - you can get on top of it, but you have to accept that it won't be instant and, if there is a large amount, you need to use weedkiller. Glyphosate is the,answer. There is available now a by bobloes

Can anyone identify this plant?
of it is to spray with glyphosate, but don't let it touch the rose. I've never had to deal with horsetail B-L. Do you have to wait for it to be green before you hit it? Actually, I haven't either, but I saw the head gardener at Hyde Hall (I think it was) getting rid by Jody Lovatt
