Can it be used in flower beds without killing the plants and bushes?

sorry I never tried on plants, on bushes I think it'd work. as I'm sure I hit my bushes when I sprayed.

Yes it can. Imix it up and put a good healthy does on the nut grass and it kills it out. HOWEVER the nut grass will come back with time if you get a lot of rain but that does stays in the ground for a long time. I try not to put the spray too heavy around the base of any of my plants. I am getting ready to mix up a batch tomorrow and it is the only product that works on the nut grass in South Texas.

I use it for weeds in my dwarf mondo grass with no problem. Not sure about anything else though.

I think so Carrie, I used it in my front bed with with day lilies, daffodils and blue rug junipers without ill effect.

One word, yes. It is a heavy duty poison and it will kill any plant it touches. I watered down and sprayed on weeds that were in between rock. Be careful of drift from flowing water or overspray onto other plants.

I cannot say for certain, but you could take the precaution of spraying your shrubbery and grass and thoroughly wetting them before you apply the product, and when you are done come back over and thoroughly spray off the shrubbery and grass again. This should stop the product from sitting on the plant during application and wash off and dilute any product that remains on the plant after you are done cleaning.

My main purpose was to kill the nut sedge in my daylily beds and it does that without distorting the daylilies. It will kill other plants (like thyme and daiseys) but not bermuda, fescue or lirope.

If you dry and ground the flowers as an insecticide it will kill any insect, including bees. But if you're just growing it in your garden, you don't need to worry.

It shouldn't as it is really designed for pests. I would avoid putting direct, undiluted product directly on the flowers,shrubs, etc....I have not used mine yet, so I cannnot rate it's effectiveness yet. From the reviews, it sounds like it will work fairly well.

Yes, on the container it mentions that it will kill blackberry bushes. I recommend that you make sure the solution is placed at the root. I hope this answers your question Shirley.

It didn't hurt any other plants but it didn't get rid of my weeds. I used it on my grass and near flowers and trees it might do well in a small area.

I would not unless you are carefully spraying it directly on the weeds you want to get rid of..

This product doesn't kill plants. It only keeps seeds for new ones from germinating. I wouldn't recommend it for keeping weeds out of lawns, though. It is like orange paint; it will color the lawn, and it is expensive. I use it to keep weeds out of flower beds where perrenials are growing.

Yes, it will. It is designed to kill just about any living tree, shrub or plant. Be careful.

Yes. Be very careful NOT to get it on any other plant life you do not want to kill.

This vinegar will kill any plant material it comes into contact with which is likely why they don't recommend spraying it. Our arborist recommended using a paint bush so we'd have better control of where it ended up.

If applied at the rate indicated on the back of the package, this product would be safe for ornamental shrubs. However, I would not recommend that you use it for most shrubs. The product is high in nitrogen which will produce increased vegetative growth, to the detriment of flower production. I do use it however on my bamboo. Bamboo is similar to a grass and therefore I want high nitrogen.

I used it on my landscape box bushes and other flowering bushes didn't seem to hurt and killed the weeds.

I didn't have any problems when using this around my plants. I used it both around my flower garden and my vegetable garden. It does not kill all bugs but it does significantly reduce the number of bugs you will have.

This will kill whatever you manage to spray it on. Bushes may take a bit more overspray, but you do want to make sure to protect the plants you plan to keep. Also avoid windy conditions that will scatter the spray.
