Apparently you've never tried to kill a trumpet..vine, bush..alien invasive beast of a plant.

It is my mission...this summer to KILL it!! TOTALLY eliminate it!!

KILL,...KILL...KILL!!!

Is trumpet vine a bad, invasive species?

I ask because I have “Texas Trumpet Vine” in my back yard, and it looks pretty. Lots of downward-facing flowers in red and yellow. Flowers seem to only face the sun.
