Q&A – Is there a way to get rid of morning glories permanently?
Question:
Is there a way to get rid of morning glories permanently?
Answer:
Morning glory is tough. Retired MSU Extension Horticulture Specialist Lelia Kelly says you can follow the vine back and pull them up, but you want to do this before they set seed. They have a large root system so they may come back up from the roots. You can also use a pre-emergent herbicide to keep the new seeds from growing.
