    Huisache

    Anyone with property in the Real County, Edwards, Kerr area have huisache that seems to not have bloomed yet this year? Was curious to know if anyone else is experiencing the same from the freeze or if yours has taken off crazy like it does every spring??

    We saw it outside bracketville last week. Some that was lower to the ground had a little bud but most seemed dead.

    Wish it would have killed youpon also

        I know it isn't in your requested counties, but ours down in DeWitt did not like that freeze one bit. Our mesquite seems to be flourishing though

            In Fayette county where I fought the stuff like crazy for 10 years... not one leaf on any plant. I am sure it will come back but I am sure enjoying the fact that it is hurting. I have hand cut and sprayed over 3000 plants on my place.

              Wow you have me beat for sure brother, i took advantage of it this past weekend and used the saw zaw and the ol leg kick to knock a few down, some are just straight rotting out and will fall over with some assistance, the clusters are the hardest to get it seems. Does the spraying really keep it from coming back in that spot, can it still pop up right next to it?

                There are several approaches to (try) to kill it. The most effective for me has been to cut the plant/tree close the ground and spray it with remedy/diesel. You can also try spraying the leaves with Sendero and a surfactant. That method takes a lot more herbicide and longer to kill.

                It is a pain to cut and dispose of the plants but cutting and spraying the stump has given me the best outcome.

                    As of this weekend, the small plants are greening out the medium size trees some are greening out. Have not seen any large huisache trees greening out. I talked to the Kinney county ag department and they don’t know if the large trees will survive or not

                    Grazon p&d works good on the leave spraying for huisache

                    I plan on using sendero for the mesquites this summer

                      I have been through Marion quite a few times lately and a road I don't normally use outside of Seguin. All around Marion, there is a lot of huisache, all of it looks dead at this point, same outside Seguin. Huisache, normally blooms pretty early, looks like the Marion area, may have a lot of dead huisache over many thousands of acres. That's been my bet for the last couple of weeks.

                        I wish that you were right but as hard as it is to kill due to its really long roots, I doubt it is dead.

                        It would be the greatest thing that ever happened to my property if it were though!

                          Works great but has to be sprayed in the fall.

                            Just started seeing a few smaller ones leaf out in the last few days. but not all the plants. Hoping it whacked some of the big ones or for that matter any that haven’t leafed yet. . Lavaca County.
