Which mentions Garlon 3A.

Any other ideas?

On another note I'll have landscaping to do for two houses. One house
has a huge crepe myrtle dominating the front yard. Aside from that they
are both empty slates. The terrains a little hilly in Atlanta 7b
(piedmont). Both sun and shade.

I'll be thinking both landscape plantings (and ground covers) and
more useful plants like blueberries, peaches and yarrow and I have no
idea what else. Got a creek behind one.

Lose the vegetative part but keep the roots.
