Violets? I sprayed this exactly three weeks ago and the weeds (especially the violets!!!) seem to have grown even more! It's almost like I sprayed fertilizer on them instead of this product. Getting discouraged. Any other recommendations? The violets are also going into the mulched beds. Is there something I can use that won't harm my other plants (Lenten roses, crepe myrtles, peonies, etc.)?
Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide is not labeled for wild violet therefore would not be effective in eliminating this weed. TZone SE Broadleaf Herbicide or Hi Yield Triclopyr Ester would be alternative herbicides to target wild violet in tolerant turfgrasses. When treating in landscape beds, direct spot treatments are recommended and do not spray within the drip line of desirable plants. Do not apply when overspray or wind drift conditions are present to avoid injury. View our Wild Violet Treatment Guide for more information.
