Just set fire to it.

Nooooo don't set fire it's a prairie grass and it regenerates through fire. Cut it with hedge trimmer then use a sharp mattock to grub it out.

Prairie grass seems to have fallen out of fashion, had to cut n remove 3 big plants from 3 gardens in last few weeks.

I dug ours out a few years ago, just dug down round it then rocked it to break what roots were left and dragged it out on a sheet of canvas. I put it on freecycle and someone came and took it away a couple of days later.
