    Got out to do some weeding yesterday. One of the beds has loads of that awful creeping buttercup. Its so difficult to successfully pull out the roots, I tried with a dinner knife
    Lots of them are wedged right in at the base of plants in the bed
    Can anyone offer any advice. I really don't want to have to spend the rest of the year trying to get rid of these every time they appear

    Spray them with a selective weedkiller.

    Or spot treat them with a systemic weedkiller (heading off out now to pull a load of dandelions :-( )
