How can I kill this large plant effectively? I have a wide, tiered garden & between the first & second level thereā€™s a large rockery, the main feature being these 2 huge plants. Too huge.

Iā€™ve not long moved in & last summer I only had chance to cut them right back before winter kicked in, it really opened up the garden & gave the back of the house more light. I hoped they wouldnā€™t live through winter. However they started to immediately grow back with a vengeance & theyā€™re nearly as big as they were originally when I moved in. Digging out would be difficult as access is awkward. The one in the photo I could potentially access from the steps but the other is very difficult as itā€™s in the ā€œmiddleā€ of the rockery.

Iā€™ve started the garden clean up, beginning to think about how I want my new garden & these need to go. So overpowering.

Is there a magical homemade formula that kills off plants? I do have a cat, so thatā€™s something I need to consider, too.

Thank you in advance!

I had one which was mostly dried out. Absolutely hate these plants, just personal preference. Small volume of petrol and a match got rid of most of it. Then judge out with a spade
