Notes:

This weed has been spreading throughout my garden and I need to know how to rid myself of it. What is it and how do I permanently get rid of it. It has a long deep root, almost like a carrot. Thanks.

    Evening primrose (Oenothera biennis). Actually an edible native plant, which was taken back to Europe by early explorers for cultivation, but did not become popular, there or here. If you just pull up all new plants before they reseed, it probably won’t take long to be rid of them.
