Getting rid of new guinea impatiens

Question

The new guinea impatiens have taken over in our large shrubbery. They were there when we bought the property. A few years ago I pulled a lot of it out but it is worse than ever again, smothering other plants that I had planted. It is hard to dispose of when you pull it out. Is there something that will kill it where it is?

Answer 1

Yes, boiling water will kill almost anything that it comes into contact with. It may take several applications, but it will solve your problem.
