Remove Annual Vines Now?

DrPulte_Moderator | Posted in General Discussion on

We can grow a variety of annual vines in the Southeast that bring wonderful summer color to the garden. Those, along with vining vegetables such as beans, have now faded. Before colder weather arrives, I like to remove and compost, or even trash, any of these plants. I find them much more difficult to remove during spring cleanup. If you grew a vine that you don’t want to self-seed next year, like morning glory (Ipomoea tricolor, Zones 10–11), removal now can help prevent the nuisance of volunteer seedlings next year.
