Q.Invasive Black Eyed Susans

Zone 48104 | Anonymous added on August 9, 2020 | Answered

I planted some Black Eyed Susans a few years ago. I took them out of the garden because they spread too much. However, now they are showing up absolutely everywhere as bad as the weeds. How do I get rid of them? Just pull them up?

You can dig them up. I found out they don't "pull" up. If there are too many and that is too labor intensive you may want to use a non-selective herbicide with glyphosate.

Here are some alternatives to chemicals you may want to try:
