Flower Question
Does anyone know if there is something that will kill the weeds but not kill the flowers? Since I hurt my back, I cannot weed now...but I can hose down the flowers...So I was wondering if there was something made that you can spray on the flowers, and kill the weeds, but not harm the flowers.
Thanks,
Scott

Re: Flower Question
You can use round up in a small spray bottle and individually spray each weed.

Re: Flower Question
I buy this stuff at Lowes...it's a three phase weed killer. I think it's called Spectracide. Anyway, it comes in a Windex type bottle and you saturate the weed with it and the weed dies in 24 hours, then the root is killed in ten days or so. I haven't used it in my flower beds, only cuz I am afraid of killing the flowers, but it works great in the rocks, cracks and curb strip.

Re: Flower Question
I really don't like to use poisons. Did you put mulch down? That will cut back tremendously on the weeds. (Make it a thick layer)

Re: Flower Question
We had mulch down but when we got termites we removed it.

Maybe have a landscaper weed for you and then put the Preen down. We haven't gotten weeds since using Preen.
