The Bermuda grass really took hold two years ago in a drought. At that time the initial grass plants put roots down in the ground for more than a foot. I have tried Grass Be Gone as an over the top spray without much success. It killed the top growth, but not the roots and in about a month it was growing again. However, I haven't tried the sprays Michele listed. The Bermuda grass is so frustrating because it grows through my daylily clumps. It also seems to love the various weed barriers I've used and just runs under them until it gets to the well watered daylilies. Thanks for the suggestions so far, Keep 'em coming.

Pam - how do you use the Round Up without killing back your daylilies?
