Auntie, Sister. Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Mother and Wife of German Descent I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com View all posts by auntyuta

Persistent and hearty!
I would have to google that question to find out the answer.
HUGS!!!
Carolyn, I think the answer is you’d have to dig out the left over roots from that tall Camphor Laurel that we had removed by a contractor. Some of the old roots were poisoned by the contractor at the time. But they were not able to reach a l l the roots because they were too wide spread. A lot of the left over roots Peter dug out bit by bit, and he got some help with it from Matthew. But there are still quite a few very big roots left that are very hard too get at. New little plants come our of the roots all the time. As soon as Peter takes the shoots out, new ones appear practically overnight! You’re right, Carolyn, you can call it persistent and hearty.
Should some kind of poison perhaps be tried again?
