Alocasia Macrorrhiza

Roundup sounds good to me but it should be done in a period of the growth
cycle when the foliage is feeding the bulb, not when the bulb is feeding the
foliage.

David,
Recently purchased a coastal property-home- on the Central Coast of New
South Wales and with it a large area of Alocasia M. sloping toward the
ocean.
They are exposed to the elements, particularly severe storms from the
ocean, resulting in the leaves being torn to shreds and the supporting
stems
broken. I have noticed the summer sun causes them to brown and wilt. Sadly
they will have to be removed. I get the impression from their ability to
propagate this might be difficult.- Roundup?-- What suggestion might you
have?
Good wishes and anticipating your reply David.
Des
