    Crush some of the leaves and dip them into neat glyphosate.

    Sprayed it well with glyphosate some weeks ago...now thinking I may need to double strength it. Is it possible to eradicate or ..... ?

    Its got a waxy coat which stops anything soaking in, which is why you have to crush it first :)
