Control

Chamaesyce hyssopifolia can thrive in turf grass and can be very difficult and time-consuming to remove by hand. Other cultural weed control methods are equally ineffective due to the large number of seedlings. Professionally selected and applied broadleaf weed killers—based on your specific climate and geography—are the most effective method for control.
