Has anyone got any wisdom to share in the ongoing battle against onion (Allium L.)
weed? I've got a patch of the $@_)(%@&^$%^ stuff down the side of the
house and I just can't seem to get rid of it. All suggestions gratefully
accepted! ;-D

Glyphosate hasn't worked for me. I know two methods that do.
Lots of patience method: dig each little clump up with all the bulblets
than you can get, repeat several times over a period of a year.
No patience method: dig out all the soil to a depth of about 25cm get rid
of it and replace it.
Or then there is paving over.

sodding onion weed comes up through very thick bromeliad patches.
