Weed killer will harm Costus/Ginger?
South Florida zone 10b.
I have planted some Costus (Ginger family) in a 50' long planter area. However the weeds are growing like wild fire and I am unable to keep up with pulling them. I wanted to use some weed killer to control the weeds (clover leaf type, see a pic here http://www.biology-blog.com/images/b...-leaf-3100.jpg ), but have heard that weed killer will also kill plants that have rhizones which my Costus is. Is this true? Is there a better way to control the weeds beside hand pulling? Thanks, MC |
