I have been using Grass B Gone in and around my flower beds for years. What a time saver! The grass dies and the flowers bloom on. For some reason I have not been able to find it in stock in town, and I see that the shipping from Amazon is 1-3 months. Hmmm- I might not need it then, but I'll order anyway for next year. Normally, I use organic products and no herbicides, but this is so great that I have to make an exception.

I bought a home with gardens that had been totally neglected for years. The grass was so bad, I thought I would have to tear out all the ground cover and perennials. Fortunately one of my new neighbors suggested I try Grass-B-Gon. I bought one bottle of this product, to try. I picked an area where the grass was especially bad. I was astounded at how nicely this cleaned up my ground cover. I went to buy more, and could not find it ANYWHERE! The area where I used this product is grass free. I wish I could say the same for the rest of my gardens! I was thrilled to find this product is once again available!

I love this product! It makes gardening easier when you can just spray and get rid of unwanted grass. The frustrating part is when you can't find it anywhere. It disappeared for months and I was afraid they weren't making it anymore.

This is one product you'll always find on my shelves. I also like the Weed-Be-Gone.

When I go to gardening stores, they are always trying to convince me to buy some other product when I already know what I want. This works! I don't want to add water, mix, etc., I just want to pick it up, use it, and get on with my life. I have to 'fight' my way to the check-out counter, but it's worth standing my ground. It's easy to use and effective. I recommend it highly.

do not buy. This is the same prodict sold in concentrate form as "Ornamec". For the price they are charging you can buy almost a quart of Ornamec. You then dilute down 1-2 oz per gallon for use. This product should cost no more than $6 or $7 if you want the premix. Check Ace hardware.

This grass-killer is fantastic for the many of us who can't possibly keep up with grass in the flowers. Believe it or not, it really works!

I love this stuff. Killed all bermuda in my yard with two applications (one Spring, one Fall). It has never returned one year later. This will only work when applied during the bermuda growing season, which is Spring & Fall. Bermuda is dormant in the summer, so don't bother applying then. And be sure you know exactly what your invasive grass is or it won't have any effect at all. Are you sure it is bermuda? Not crab grass or another invasive grass? It will kill any hybridized bermuda lawn grasses like BOB sod. So you really need to know what is in your lawn before you try this. Use your state and/or county extension website to identify your local invasive grasses. If you aren't up to the research, hire a professional landscaper to deal with it. The active ingredient, Fluazifop, is illegal for retail sale in many states, so you won't find it in the big box stores like Lowe's, Home Depot, or Wal-Mart. And an online seller may cancel your order if you are in one of those states. But even in states where retail sale is illegal, a licensed professional landscaper can apply the more highly concentated form of Fluazifop. This is not the same as Weed-B-Gone!

At first I wasn't sure this was going to work because it doesn't give fast results like Round Up does on weeds. I needed to get grass out of a pachysandra bed without killing the pachysandra plants, so I couldn't use Round Up. I sprayed, looked at the bed the next day, and the grass was still there....but within a week it was all killed off! This product is not in local stores in my area, so I had to buy it on-line.

We bought Ortho Grass-B-Gon from the local Ace Hardware a couple of years ago and found that it magically killed the grass in our iris beds without harming the irises. Now we can't find it in Ace Hardware or any of the local Garden Stores nor in Lowe's or Home Depot. What to do? Look on the Internet! Hurray! Amazon.com has it!

This product takes about 10-14 days to kill the grass in the ground cover but it does eventually work very well. It also turned the evergreen ground cover a slightly lighter shade of green as it killed the grass. Overall, I am very pleased with this product and will order it again.

My local hardware store quick stocking this so was super glad to find it. Really cuts down on the crab grass that gets in my flower garden. Super fast shipping.
