Killing Rose of Sharon Roots Safely: Round-Up Method

Safe Eradication

Allow regrowth (few inches).
Spray foliage with Round-Up (glyphosate).
Herbicide translocates to roots, kills entire plant.
Safe for kids/pets once absorbed (dry).

Why Not Stump Treatment

Foliar spray moves faster to roots than cut-stump application.
