Burien Morning Glory Removal
Homeowner’s Issue
Morning glory and similar vines spread quickly in our rainy, cool coastal climate and can smother shrubs, groundcovers, and ornamentals. Many Burien properties have compacted, clayey soils, north-facing shade in pockets near trees, or sunny slopes that let vines climb fences and roofs; poor drainage in low spots near Lake Burien or older terraces encourages thick mats of roots and runners. Landlords and homeowners expect low-maintenance, tidy yards that don’t create tenant calls or tenant-safety hazards, and morning glory undermines both curb appeal and safe pathways. For rental turnovers, invasive vines add time and cost to cleanups and can pull out planting. Sustainable, manual removal plus soil repair, mulching, and targeted planting are the best long-term strategy here — especially around Seahurst Park corridors and in neighborhoods bordering White Center — to reduce regrowth without using chemicals.
