Re: Pulmonarias in November & Northern Sea Oats & Oak Leaf Mulch
I would like to second Jeff's advice. Fusilade has enabled me to clear
wire grass from many areas of my garden without damaging other plants.

Roundup works but is hazardous to other plants. If you would like
control
of a grass in a "non grass" crop such as hosta I would suggest the use
of
Fusilade, Envoy, or another one of the selective, post-emerge grass
herbicides. They are very effective on grasses and very safe over non
grasses.
