The infamous chameleon plant, it is a rapidly spreading creeper. In need to know how to kill it. I have tried various weed killers and no luck. I tried the concentreated Roundup on the chameleon and that just made it angry. I spread 3 layers of plastic over the ground where they live and they pop up around the edges. Does drowning/overwatering kill it? Should i use liquid nitrogen? Does acidifying the soil damage the chameleon? How about a base? If so, tell me what will be the most effective.
Chameleon plant (Houttuynia cordata) is semi-aquatic and would love the extra water! Pramitol is a soil sterilant. It would take about a year to breakdown in the soil. It will kill all vegetation not just the C.P. It's available on E-bay. HTH Chris
Prometon is a known groundwater contaminant. Depending on the situation, it may not be suitable. Have a look at the management information for Houttuynia cordata in the Global Invasive Species Database
