Re: melilotus control?

We at Indianapolis Parks (central Indiana) would also like to know a regime for controlling the white clover (Melilotus alba, or officinalis?).

Several planted prairie sites in Parks and Golf course have been impacted severely this year--even in the well established 5 year old sites.  A golf superintendent is pretty upset at hand pulling 4 pickup truck loads--any suggestions?  Thanks

I use Remedy to control unwanted Doe. It does an excellent job. I use it
primarily for Serecia lespedeza control. One quart to the acre plus a
surfactant knocks it dead. A few weeks ago I used 1 pint per acre plus a
surfactant and the plants have yellowed and look very sick but at this point
I don't know if they will be killed. I am still observing. I use a 2%
solution in my backpack sprayer and it knocks Serecia in about 3 days.

Remedy is a Dow-Elanco product, non-restricted use herbicide and should be
available at any ag chem dealer.
