Andrew, Before you buy an ornamental herbicide and there are many. Keep in
mind that most ornamental herbicides and other pesticides in general have an
agricultural equivalent that almost always sells for half the price. A good
example is metolachlor. PENNANT @ $250 a gallon for ornamentals and
DUAL-MAGNUM @ $120 a gallon agricultural. Both are exactly the same
formulation with different stickers on the bottle. Many growers buy the ag
version and keep an ornamental lable on file for the EPA.... Bob
