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.

Bob, will ornamec 170 kill moss? I'd like to kill the grass in large areas
where moss is also growing. I just bought some wettable sulphur which will
lower the pH, hopefully killing the grass over time, and only making the
moss happier.

I don't know, but if you find the manufacturers site, I'm sure
they list plants it either does or does not kill.
