I will be applying Tenacity today as a post emergent and want to know if I should worry about it coming in contact with either my Japanese Red Maple or Dogwood trees. Thank you
Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled for trees so spraying around the trees could possibly harm them. It states on the product label: Avoid applications over the top of exposed roots of trees and ornamentals. Just about all herbicides are going to have the restriction that applications should be kept out of the dripline of desirable trees. The best you could do is carefully spot treat the weeds themselves and not broadcast in these areas.
