Weeds are considered to be pests on the site, although among cultivated plants there are also species that can spread over a large area in a short time. They need to be planted carefully and constantly make sure that they do not capture adjacent beds. Among the most dangerous crops, 7 aggressor plants can be distinguished.

Plants - "invaders"
Controlling aggressor plants is difficult. Even by regularly removing excess shoots, one cannot be sure that this culture will not appear in an unexpected place, not intended for it, and will not grow violently there.
Garden strawberry
Gardeners always carefully look after strawberries, wishing to get a big harvest. But if you forget about the garden bed with this plant for the season, it will quickly spread over the site with a solid carpet, which will not be easy to get rid of.
Strawberries shoot mustache shoots, the purpose of which is reproduction. Up to 15-20 such antennae can grow on 1 bush over the summer. First, they braid their furrow, and then spread to neighboring ones. They are able to destroy even lawn grass. A large number of whiskers take away the strength from the plant, so the berries become smaller.
To preserve a good harvest and prevent the strawberries from spreading, excess shoots must be removed in time, or mustacheless varieties must be planted.
Raspberry seductive
This variety of raspberries reaches 30-60 cm in height, has thorny bushes, therefore it is often used as a hedge. The rhizomes of the culture actively grow at a distance of 1 m from the trunk, located at a depth of 50 cm. To limit the growth of Tibetan raspberries, they are planted in special trenches lined with slate or boards. You can use pots.
Doubtful tladianta
Doubtful tladiant is popularly called “red cucumber”. Most often, this vine is used for decorative purposes because of its beautiful foliage and red-orange fruits, similar to cucumbers. Tladiant's roots are made up of a chain of tubers. The underground part is growing rapidly and can cover 15 m² in 1 season.
To protect neighboring beds from the appearance of a "red cucumber", boards or slate must be dug into the ground to a depth of 0.5 m.
Jerusalem artichoke
Jerusalem artichoke will decorate any fence with its yellow flowers. Its roots are used for food. However, it is necessary to constantly monitor that the tubers of the plant do not spread beyond the territory allotted to it. If you do not control this plant, it will begin to survive the nearby crops.
It is easier to deal with it than with other invading plants: at the end of the season, you need to cut off all the greens, and at the beginning of spring, dig up excess dead tubers until new shoots appear on them.
Horseradish
Horseradish is an unpredictable culture. Some gardeners, following all the advice of experts, cannot get a good harvest, while others do not know how to get rid of this plant that has filled the entire plot. It is easier to prevent the growth of horseradish than to fight it later in all corners of the site. To do this, it is planted in a pit, the walls of which are laid out with a fence 50 cm deep.
If horseradish has already grown on the site, you can fight the pest in the following way: regularly dig up the ground, removing even the smallest rhizomes of the plant from it. In a particularly difficult case, it is necessary to resort to herbicides.
Sorrel
2-3 beds of sorrel are enough to be enough for both summer soup and a treat for children. But this plant rarely has enough space allotted to it. Growing in a variety of ways, it begins to appear in other parts of the garden. To avoid the appearance of sorrel in undesirable places, you should regularly cut off its peduncles until the moment when seeds appear on them. It is important to regularly weed, removing excess seedlings.
Tarragon
In 2-3 years, a small bush of tarragon, or tarragon, can grow into a whole clearing, crushing underneath all the crops that grew on the site before it. This pest lies with branches on the ground, densely covering it. In order not to uproot tarragon thickets in the future, it should be planted near a fence or in places where nothing grows. Bushes need to be tied and seeds removed.
