RE: overspray of broadleaf killer hit my plants..HELP

Try Sugar water. When plants are over fertilized, over watered, and some burn types can be overcome with leaf application of sugar that the leaf can absorb through the stoma and directly use for energy without having to go through even photosynthesis. One year a farmer over sprayed 20 acres on our farm & we saved part of the field with sugar water. Many house plants have been saved this way when an over zealous fertilizer salesman comes along.

Kenny, try removing the affected growth.  Might have to take out the growing points.  if you didn't get complete coverage the old growth might keep you going till you get some new growth.
