Thanks.

Right now I am just trying to cut down the parts with hanging fruit of any kind. Or knock them down.

It was a very large entangled mess when I started. It was to the roof (maybe 9 feet) and then about 6 feet across and pushing into the trees that had been planted when the house went up.

It was not there a few years ago. Its growth has been over the past two years or so.

It is probably some mis-identified lantana sold somewhere in or near the Villages.

It does look like I will have to kill the root which could be massive.
