Default Florida Oak Tree's in The Villages

I recently purchased a home in TV. In my front yard I have a florida oak tree in a circular brick/paver bed. There are roots growing up through the black mesh and stones having leaves and growing wild in the bed. They are not weeds but appears to be actual tree branches growing up from the roots. I have tried cutting them, but they are growing back rapidly. Does anyone know of a way to deal with these type of tree roots that are growing upward?? Should I just leave them and forget about planting flowers in the circular bed.
Any ideas would be appreciated, Thanks in advance.
