58 THE RESPONSE OF FIELD AND CONTAINER GROWN ORNAMENTALS TO SULFENTRAZONE AND FLUMIOXAZIN. M.W. Marshall and B.H. Zandstra, Michigan State University, East Lansing. ABSTRACT Field studies were conducted in 2006 to evaluate tolerance of container and field grown ornamentals to various rates of sulfentrazone and flumioxazin. Treatments included sulfentrazone at 0.14, 0.28, and 0.56 kg/ha and flumioxazin at 0.28, 0.56, and 1.02 kg/ha. An untreated control was included for comparison. Container grown ornamental species included periwinkle (Vinca minor L.), butterfly bush (Buddleia davidii 'Adonis Blue'), inkberry holly (Ilex glabra ‘Ivory Queen’), orange coneflower (Rudbeckia fulgida var. fulgida ‘Meadowbrite’), and boxwood (Buxus microphylla ‘Green Mountain’). Field grown ornamental species included burning bush (Euonymus alatus compactus), azalea (Azalea ‘Cannon’s Double’), boxwood, daylily (Hemerocallis ‘Evelyn Claar’), coral bells (Heuchera micrantha ‘Palace Purple’), hosta (Hosta fortunei 'Gold Standard'), and shasta daisy (Leucanthemum x superbum 'Snowcap'). In the container study, sulfentrazone was applied on July 15, 2006 and August 22, 2006. In the field study, sulfentrazone was applied on June 22, 2006 and July 24, 2006 and flumioxazin was applied on June 22, 2006. Experimental design was a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. Individual plot sizes were 0.6 by 0.9 m and 5.4 by 10.6 m in the container study and field study, respectively. Plant injury ratings were evaluated 7, 14, and 28 days after treatment (DAT) on a 0 to 9 scale with 0 indicating no injury and 9 equal to crop death. Herbicides were applied in water over-the-top of newly transplanted ornamentals at a carrier volume of 187 L/ha with a pressure of 207 KPa. Boxwood grown in container and the field showed very little injury to sulfentrazone and flumioxazin, regardless of the rate. Plants most sensitive to sulfentrazone included butterfly bush, orange coneflower, coral bell and daylily. In addition, daylily, Hosta, and Shasta daisy were sensitive to over-the-top applications of flumioxazin, especially at 1.02 kg/ha. Sulfentrazone injury, regardless of species, included browning of the leaves where the spray intercepted the leaf. New growth at the base of the plant did not exhibit these symptoms. Butterfly bush showed moderate injury at the 0.28 and 0.56 kg/ha sulfentrazone rate 7 DAT. By 28 DAT, injury was only apparent at the 0.56 kg/ha rate. In the field study, boxwood, Azalea, and burning bush exhibited very little response to flumioxazin and sulfentrazone, regardless of rate. At 14 and 28 DAT, daylily, Hosta, and Shasta daisy injury at 0.56 kg/ha ranged from 5.7 to 8.7, with the Hosta being the most sensitive. By the end of the trial; however, these plants had regrown and recovered to sizes not significantly different from the untreated control. In general, sulfentrazone and flumioxazin were generally safe on the container and field grown woody ornamental plants. Sulfentrazone at 0.28 and 0.56 kg/ha should be used with caution on container and field grown orange coneflower, butterfly bush, Hosta, and daylily. Since both formulations were liquids, a granular formulation maybe safer on these sensitive species. 40
59 THE EFFICACY AND CROP TOLERANCE OF PRE AND POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS OF HALOSULFURON TO CHRISTMAS TREES. L.J. Kuhns and T.L. Harpster, The Pennsylvania State Univ., University Park. ABSTRACT Over a two-year period, pre and postemergence applications of halosulfuron were made to three conifer species on five sites in Pennsylvania. At 0.33 lb ai/A, when combined with oryzalin for preemergence grass control, halosulfuron provided excellent broad-spectrum weed control. At 0.041 to 0.167 lb ai/A, when combined with oryzalin, it provided good to adequate control at three of the sites but was weak at two others. Applied prior to budbreak, there was little to no injury. Applied after budbreak, halosulfuron caused serious contact injury to the plants. However, no plants were killed and plants injured in 2005 grew well in 2006. 41
