Hi all,
Been looking at some properties this weekend and one of them had some sort of climber/crawler coming through the walls. The gardent was very overgrown and this plant was everywhere. If anyone could help me identify this plant and a way to get rid of it I would be very grateful. Thank you.

Looks like Bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis) ; a difficult but not impossible weed to control .

I have had this in my perennial border for many years ; I just keep pulling it out wherever it appears .
It is not impervious to selective weedkillers , but this can be awkward when it entangles garden plants .
