Hi,

About 3 months ago we had a big tree (think it's called Amelia, spelling?)
removed from our garden because it was too close to the house. The tree
was
over 2 stories tall, or about same height as the overhead power lines in
suburban streets (I'm in Victoria).

Now, I'm getting new shoots coming out of the lawn! About 8 of them,
knee/hip
high and growing very leafy and quickly.

What can I do to get rid of the new shoots and prevent them from growing
back
again? ... I removed 1 big tree, now I have 8 small ones #@! ...

Thanks in advance, cheers

Robin


Don't cut the shoots off, leave them.
Use straight undliuted glyphosate (Roundup) and paint the whole shoots with
them.
Or you could use blackberry and tree killer. That should definitely get it.

good luck
