I don't know how long ago, but it has "runners" with a 3"-4" diameter. And roots under the house. When allowed to grow freely (for just ONE season), it severely damaged wood siding and a brick chimney. And it will not die. I have seen runners send out shoots AFTER the runners have been cut off from their roots. I find small shoots of it 20-30 feet away from where the main infestation is and I dig and dig and it always comes back. It laughs at both Roundup and Othro Brush B-Gon. I will NEVER plant this anywhere, anywhere, anywhere. [Rating]
