Es hat tiefe Pfahlwurzeln und muss einzeln ausgegraben werden, kein leichtes Unterfangen bei der Gr\u00f6sse dieses Gartenteils. Und ich erwische einfach nie alle Wurzelteile. Als der Rebberg zum Rosengarten verwandelt wurde, h\u00e4tte ich mindestens eine Saison warten sollen mit Anpflanzen. Dadurch h\u00e4tte ich auch die Fl\u00e4che richtig von den Unkr\u00e4utern befreien k\u00f6nnen. Aber nein, ich war so ungeduldig  und habe einfach in den umgepfl\u00fcgten Ackerboden gepflanzt. Ein grober Fehler, der sich noch heute bitter r\u00e4cht&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\">I fight against this persistent weed. It has deep taproots which I have to dig out one by one. Not an easy job with regard to the size of this garden room. And almost never I catch the whole root. When we turned the little vineyard  into a rosegarden, I should have waited at least for one year before planting  roses and all the perennials. So it would have been possible to get rid of all the persistent weed we now have. But  impatient as I was,  I immediately  started to plant in the ploughed field.  A mistake which I still have to pay for!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"thickbox no_icon\" title=\"dscn0385.jpg\" href=\"http:\/\/baroga.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/dscn0385.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"imageframe imgaligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/baroga.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/dscn0385.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"dscn0385.jpg\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nebst diesem, f\u00fcr mich noch namenlosen Unkraut, hat es auch noch verschiedene, nun h\u00fcfthohe, hartn\u00e4ckige Gr\u00e4ser, die unterirdisch kr\u00e4ftige Wurzelgeflechte bilden und ebenfalls sehr m\u00fchsam zu entfernen sind.
