My elderly neighbour has borders infested with alliums, no flowers come just the leaves coming up everywhere. I tried pulling all these out for her in the autumn. They just seem to just multiply. How do we get rid of them.
Thank you.

keep pulling them and then as the foliage is dying down the spray the alliums with glycophosphate [round up] type weedkiller. It will go into the bulb and destroy the bulb as it 'overwinters'.
