Tanya,
If the Quackgrass in Virginia is the same as the Quackgrass here, I don't
think Preen will do you much good. Our Quackgrass is a hardy perennial that
spreads rampantly by means of underground runners, the tips of which are so
sharp they can pierce right through tulip bulbs, if not iris rhizomes. It
seldom, if ever, seems to come from seed. It is highly susceptible to
Roundup, however.
