I have been keeping an eye on a small patch of this relatively new invasive in the flood plain of a small creek about ¼ mile from my home in Charlottesville, VA. I’ve hand pulled it in the past, apparently before it released its seeds (though I can’t guarantee it). But, this year I’ve just visited the area and it has definitely spread. It is not in bloom here now<span style='color:#1F497D'> but the leaves have emerged.</span> I’ve seen it in bloom here near the end of April, but have heard others say they have seen it in bloom in March elsewhere. <span style='color:#1F497D'>I have a picture of the leaves taken 2-15-18. If you want to see it, email me. I can’t send another picture with this email because the message is too big if I do.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>It seems to be time for an herbicide, and I’m seeking information from those of you who have been treating it: what to use, and how and when to use it. The plants are probably 25-30’ from the creek, in its floodplain.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I’m attaching <span style='color:#1F497D'>1</span>image of it that I’ve taken<span style='color:#1F497D'>, where you can see both flowers and seed pods.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks in advance.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Ruth Douglas<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
