Waxed dalapon grass killer debuts for edging gardens
A new dalapon impregnated wax bar offers home gardeners a tool to trim grass around flower beds and trees. The wax, developed by Dow, delivers the chemical through the blades to the roots, halting growth of Bermuda, Zoysia, fescue, and bluegrass. Typically two applications per season control unwanted turf, easing edging chores.
