Not sure if this is right place for this but I want to convert a sloped area where we had several trees removed but some still remain into a manageable woodland garden area - part shade but filtered sunlight. To begin I need to get rid of the weeds and kudzu type vines. What product might you recommend and how long before I could transplant from my larger perennial gardens into this area. Live in Wisconsin - zone 5 to 5a. Area is probably about 50-60' long and 10-15' wide. Photo enclosed. Thanks much.
