Caroline Horse Nettle has a pale purple flower and makes a yellow seed ball about the size of a marble. We used to call them May bells. Its deadly to cattle. Luckily, cattle rarely touch them. The stems and tips of the leaves have small thorns.
Horse and bull nettle are perennials and usually hard to kill. Bull nettle has a huge root. I dug one up and it was 37 inches long and 4 inches in diameter. GrazonNext will take them out.
Grazon is a little slower on green briar. Hurts it real bad 1st yr, generally takes it out the second. Its an application issue because of the leaves. Its leaves are waxy and unless a good surfactant (NOT soap) is used, the herbicide just rolls off.
Anything with a large root can be hard to kill, but Grazon works well.
