Default Re: Passiflora

OK, my p. incarnata has gotten completely out of hand. Not only is it moving to cover more fence at the speed of a small train, its in the yard, and worse, is now in the neighbor's yard and trees and shrubs. I was hoping she would say she liked it, but she's now moving and I don't see a passiflora infestation as a positive selling point. So if necessary, how do I kill it off? Can I be selective and allow some to stay-or will I just be postponing the inevitable? It covers over 50 feet of fence.Thanks all.
