Lorraine's message about invasive plants has me wondering now. I have a
one-year old Halls honeysuckle tucked away, not too near anything,
because I knew it could spread. I dont know about the Akebia vine at
all, but wonder if the statement that it cannot be killed by any means
would also go for the honeysuckle? We do put Roundup on poison oak,
though we dont like to. Wouldnt that kill honeysuckle? I have planted
lots of things (several kinds of mint, for instance) which can be
invasive, and I may be sorry later. But so far, so good! If everything
I plant is invasive, I guess it all becomes a battle of the fittest,
with one toughest plant winning out? I think I have picked a number of
little aggressive plants, for some reason.
