Re: todays problem

I think, after vigilant pulling of shoots popping up all over over a period
of years, I have finally eradicated the Campsis radicans that grew on my
southeast corner arbor.  The first trumpet vine I got was C. x tagliabuana
'Mdme. Galen', which is still growing against the brick of my east wall.  I
think the minimal sunshine keeps it in check to some degree, but early on I
had shoots coming up right and left of it.  If I have any shoots come up
from either that have any kind of a root system attached this year, I'll
send them on to you.
