After surveying other areas, I decided to concentrate on removing deadly nightshade from the spring pond by the bridge. When I did this last year near the center pond it reduced the affected area a lot, so I’m trying it here. I use a rake to pull the vines out of the pond, getting as much root as possible, then I pile it up to dry.
Looks better already!
