Opinion When digging up the roots is the only way Regular contributor Jane Walters has been gardening, and reflecting on the need for some radical weeding! ‘It’s nothing personal,’ I say, as I wield my weed-grabber and focus on my prey; but it’s not entirely true. You see, I simply cannot bear dandelions in my garden. Granted, their zingy colour and unrelenting cheerfulness brightens a dull day, and I can’t deny the happy memories of blowing dandelion clocks as a child. All sentiment aside, however, if I see one, it’s got to go! They’re frustratingly persistent blighters, of course. My previous (fruitless) method of picking off the flowers as they appeared seemed only to encourage them all the more. This year – a new house, a new garden – my method is ruthless: get them out by the roots.
