If you kill the stump, the sprouts will probably disappear, if they are
suckers. If you don't, they'll still keep coming up. Since you didn't
apply it when you first cut it, you will have to drill holes in the
trunk and put it in. Go to a good garden center and ask for a good
stump killer. The directions are on the package. In the meantime,
keep mowing down the suckers, because if they can't put out leaves,
they can't grow.

Are the "little trees" the same species as the tree that was cut?

all over the lawn...she mows the lawn and they get cut ...but reappear.


How is this urgent?

How can she kill these ...that are sprouting up everywhere ?


Dig up the roots, and rid the stump to some depth other than current soil
height.

My sister does not know what sort of tree this is...the home builders

Is your sister the only one with a view of the lawn that may possibly know
the species of the tree/"little trees"?

planted it...the house is about 18 years now.


Does anyone else know what the tree or terribly implied resulting offspring
are?

Has anyone had any experience with this sort of situation ?


Yes, but someone had some glimmer of the tree species concerned.


Pls help


With what?

Yo sister has some surface runners still trying to maintain life. Where
apparent of not on the lawn remains an open subject due to lack of
information.
