The message from eddyjack contains these words:

The way you wrote that post suggests you don't pay much attention to detail and are a bit sloppy. Now go back and dig out those buttercups again, this time take out every single little teensy bit, above and below ground. If you miss a few bits, they'll be up again in a week so go back, check, and get them out.

Buttercups also like it pretty wet are you watering a lot?

What, getting lessons from Cereus VainGlorious perhaps?

Fingers work better at yankng out fresh tender shoots.

Keep at it and the roots ought to eventually starve and die.
