Darn it says  "Do not apply as an over-the-top spray to desirable
flowers, ornamentals, vegetables, shrubs or trees. Color plants or
herbaceous ornamentals may be injured when transplanted into landscaped
areas treated with SedgeHammer herbicide."

SedgeHammer is now available through Amazon, and in many good garden
