In my experience, tenacity doesnt do much to things like nutsedge that grow from bulbs under the ground.

Are you saying that's not desirable? Especially the crocus. Who wouldn't want their flower beds filled with ephemeral crocus?mobiledynamics wrote: ↑April 25th, 2019, 4:56 pmI've got one area heavily planted with Crocus and Daffodils that ~naturalized~ in the beds per se

Re: Tenacity - Spring Bulbs
The opposite. Will tenacity kill off the bulbs ? Crocus blooms are gone....daffidols blossoms are starting to fade...but like bulbs, leaves must remain uncut till at least 6-7 weeks.

Re: Tenacity - Spring Bulbs
What about halts (pendimethalin) in scotts fertilizer when you spread it? Will it harm the tulips if it get on the foliage?

Okay, so why are you wanting to spray Tenacity in flower beds? Please clarify your intention.mobiledynamics wrote: ↑April 26th, 2019, 12:00 amThe opposite. Will tenacity kill off the bulbs ?

Re: Tenacity - Spring Bulbs
Not in flower beds. In one area , I have crocus and daffodils ~naturalized~ in the lawn beds. I know we put in like 400 daffidols when we started...I'm sure there's at least 500+ with the bulblets etc. Does Tenacity affect bulbs is what the OP is asking
