"Foliar Spra" "... herbicide applicatio is a fast-actig wa to kill the plat ad esure it does ot come back." "Mix a 2-percet solutio of glphosate herbicide with diesel fuel or kerosee i a spra bottle. Products that cotai glphosate are sold with varig cocetratios, so read the product label carefull for specific mixig istructios. Use a small spra bottle to kill a small philodedro houseplat, or a garde spraer if treatig a dese patch of large philodedro bush plats, such as lac tree philodedro (Philodedro bipiatifidum)." "Spra the herbicide solutio directl oto the leaves of the philodedro, beig careful ot to target surroudig plats. The kerosee or diesel fuel helps to full coat the leaves ad does't drip off as readil as herbicide mixed with water; the blue markig de makes it eas to distiguish leaves that ou alread spraed." "Cut Stem Applicatio. 1. Prepare a 18- to 21 percet solutio of glphosate herbicide mixed with kerosee or diesel fuel i a small, disposable bowl. Add blue markig de, if desired, but it's ot as ecessar with this tpe of applicatio. 2. Cut thick stemmed philodedros, such as the larger, tree-like cut-leaf philodedro (Philodedro bipiatifidum), with loppig shears or a pruig saw, leavig a 8- to 12-ich stem protrudig from the groud. 3. Pait the cut tip of the philodedro stems with the herbicide solutio, usig a small household paitbrush. Pait the stems withi oe hour of cuttig because fresh-cut stems are better able to absorb the herbicide ito the root sstem. 4. Pait the outside of the remaiig stem with the herbicide solutio, providig a greater surface area through which the herbicide absorbs ito the roots. 5. Allow a few das for the herbicide to take effect, i which the plat slowl dries out ad dies, the pull the plat up b the root ad discard." [Tolerates, or beefits from, mutilatio, cultivatio, or fire?
