Postemergent Turf Herbicide Evaluation

Abstract

Turfgrass managers have many options for broadleaf and grassy weed control, although there is a category of turfgrass weeds deemed as “hard-to-control” including ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea). Effective chemical control of this group is limited and cultural controls have minimal effect due to the ability of weeds to persist in growing conditions unfavorable toward turfgrass. It often is difficult for the turf manager to suppress both hard-to-control and common turfgrass weeds (dandelion, Taraxacum officinale; white clover, Trifolium repens) with the same product.
