Lilies of the valley are not only May hello, but also an annoying garden dweller, able to flood the whole ridge with their root system and leaves so that there is no room for other crops on it.
Having realized that there are too many lilies of the valley in the garden, many summer residents begin to breed them, but it soon turns out that in reality it is not so simple. Recently, I encountered such a problem and realized that it is not so easy to solve it. It’s good that a neighbor intervened in this matter in time - she told me an effective way to exterminate this annoying plant. Sharing it with you.
How to get lilies of the valley out
Having learned about my problem, the first thing my neighbor noticed was the love of lilies of the valley for loose soil. And indeed, this plant feels ideal in well-groomed land, on which there are no weeds. Such conditions contribute to its active growth, reproduction, as well as faster spread throughout the space around.
She advised me to plant another, no less beautiful flower, lupine, right in the lilies of the valley.
As it turned out, lily of the valley and lupine are real enemies, because the second is able to very skillfully occupy the entire area, dispersing immediately after the first flowering. In addition, getting rid of it is quite simple - I managed to do it by digging up the soil.
