Don't even know what these shrubs / bushes are but they got way out of control and we are trying to remove them. Problem is the roots on these things are all intertwined and seems impossible to find a "central " root or tap root? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It's just an exercise infrustration trying to dig/pull 100% of the roots of an invasive plant.

that's a shrub, the name escapes me currently. ( i have them in my yard)
the roots grow like elephant ears.. and will put off new plants if cut.
till the area! 2-4" deep.
I pulled the ones from my front yard and had to fight for a season. (weed eater mainly) if you can keep the leaves from gathering light the roots will die.. (this is the alternative to poison or oil and tainting the soil)
nandina something???
main thing is chop up the soil 2-4" deep and rake the area
