[MAIPC] control strategies for Houttuynia cordata

[Elizabeth Mizell]

Blue Ridge PRISM has gotten a fair number of requests for controlling
Houttuynia cordata or chameleon plant.

http://www.iucngisd.org/gisd/species.php?sc=854

Researching online resources yields limited results. It seems the best
strategy is to manually remove the rhizomes. Many commenters in a variety
of gardening type websites and forums indicate that glyphosate is
ineffective.

Does anyone know of a good resource for control guidelines for this plant?
Any/recommendations/experience controlling this plant with herbicides?


Thank you,
Beth Mizell
