Hi,

I am trying to establish a larger area of groundcover (ajuga). It has
been a losing battle to the grass even though I have weeded and
mulched frequently. Obviously if I could get ahead of the grass for a
season or two it would take care of itself. Does anyone know of an
herbicide spray that will kill grass but not a broadleaf groundcover
such as ajuga.

thank you.

I've had fairly good success using a wick applicator and round up
around my perennials.

Here's what it looks like, sorta.
