SureGuard® EZ herbicide features an expanded label in Canada as a pre-emergence herbicide to control select grass and broadleaf weeds in and around container-grown ornamental deciduous and coniferous trees, including non-bearing fruit and nut trees.
SureGuard EZ also offers expanded vegetative management uses, including several bare ground application areas. SureGuard EZ is proven to provide long-lasting pre-emergence control of a broad spectrum of weeds, including common chickweed and waterhemp, plus the suppression of moss and liverwort.
SureGuard EZ can be applied in the late fall or winter (after two hard freezes up to bud break in the spring) to deliver control that activates in the spring and lasts through early summer.
