In 2010 my helper, Neri, and I painted each leaf with RU while wearing surgical gloves. The pieces did look dead but underground they continued to grow. Each tiny piece does continue to grow, which makes it so difficult to eradicate.

I only dug up the dahlias I liked and lost them all in the basement over winter. So I was stunned to see all the dahlias I left had returned - what a bummer! So I bought two packages and someone sent me 9 so I'll have more than enough.

Happy - I did eliminate the three areas with aegopodium by spraying every other day with RU.

All 110 caladiums, except for the windowboxes on the garage windows (Jack's job, not mine), are planted. I absolutely could not believe the size of Bill's mammoth bulbs. Just look at these five mammoth bulbs! Here's a link to Bill's site:
