Stinger Nettles, Thistles, Queen Elizabeth Thistles, or whatever you call them they grow tall with purple flowers and SHARP leaves I have them EVERYWHERE!
They are throughout one of my flower beds, along the side of my house and spreading into the front lawn. I'd rather have a lawn free of powerful chemical herbicides but I really need to get rid of these things.
Currently I've been trying to dig up the roots but they keep coming back and there's so many it would take me ages. I dig about 3 inches down and break as many roots as I can find and pull out the body of the plant.
