Question 1

Do I have to mix it with anything or just alone over the top of my ornamental plants?

Accepted Answer

For tank sprayer application, recommended, add 2 oz. of Ornamec 170 to 1 gallon of water.  I used Ornamec 170 to eradicate Bermuda grass in my lawn.  I did not apply to ornamental plants.  There is a "Directions for Use" included in a collar plastic bag with each bottle of Ornamec 170, which includes "Over the Top" plant application safety for ornamental plants.plants

Question 2

I have liatris in my flower bed and i want to apply this product to remove bermuda, will it kill liatris and monkey grass also?

Accepted Answer

Read the label for specific information, so far it hasn't killed any thing but grass for me. I have sprayed it on Monkey grass with no apparent problems yet. I don't have any liatris. Please note it may take multiple applications to get the Bermuda gone and also that Bermuda does grow back (spreads) from its rhizomes so the battle is always ongoing. plan on using it for a while if not forever. I carefully spray it along the outer edge of the stones that edge my beds. That seems to help keep it out. Not perfect but it helps.

Question 3

Can Ornamec be applied to grass weeds growing among Asiatic jasmine ground cover without damaging the jasmine plants?

Accepted Answer

Although I don't grow Jasmine ground cover, I have used Ornamec around all the plants that I do grow.  Remember that Ornamec is for grass not weeds!  Read all the information that comes with Ornamec.

Question 4

What if it rains the next day?

Accepted Answer

I live in Zone 9 and we had a lot of rain this year. Rain didn’t seem to interfere so long as I applied the Ornamec liberally the day before. It works really well for me for Bermuda grass but you have to be patient and spray throughout the season to finally kill it.
