Keeping Your Flowerbeds Beautiful: Monthly Sedge & Torpedo Treatment
Does your Louisiana lawn have stunning flower beds that are starting to lose their luster? Pesky nutsedge and torpedo grass could be the culprits! The only way to eliminate these weeds is with selective herbicides.
What are nutsedge and torpedo grass?
- Nutsedge is a rapidly growing weed that’s immune to Roundup and reproduces quickly. Because its underground structures remain in the soil after the tops are pulled, 2-3 more new plants can crop up within three days of the initial plant being pulled. It is light green and shiny with triangular-shaped stems. It spreads quickly underground through tubers, forming dense clumps that crowd your desired flowers.
- Torpedo Grass is a notorious invasive with sharp, underground rhizomes that resemble torpedoes (hence the name). This aggressive weed thrives in moist soil and can take over your flower beds before you notice it. Its roots can go 6 inches deep, making it impossible to get rid of by tugging on the stem.
Why are they common in Louisiana?
Our warm, temperate climate with occasional rain showers creates the perfect breeding ground for both nutsedge and torpedo grass. These persistent weeds can quickly take root in your flowerbeds, stealing nutrients and water from your prized blooms.
