Acanthus spinosus - 2015

Acanthus spinosus - 2015 (Acanthus spinosus)

The flower spikes are much shorter this year - I wonder if this is due to the dry weather we are having here?

A classic problem with trying to move or remove acanthus. I've found that repeated applications of a systemic weed killer to the regrowth is the only way to finally get rid of it.
