Weedkiller for Wood Avens (Geum Urbanum)
Dear All,
I have a lot of this weed along with many others in my garden, especially on a rockery where they are hard to pull out with their roots. I sprayed Glyphosate 5 weeks ago and got a good kill on grass, thistles and other types of weed but the Wood Avens has hardly been affected, just leaves yellowing a little in some cases. Does it have an immunity to Glyphosate I wonder? Glyphosate it attractive because it deactivates on absorption by the soil and so does not obstruct re-planting but I am willing to try another type, eg. brushwood (hormone) weedkiller. Does anyone have any suggestions or experiences to trade? Thanks Tom Crane Ps. The email address in the header is just a spam-trap. -- Tom Crane, Dept.
