My garden contains "GOOD" plants (roses, Mexican Heather plants, a
barberry shrub, a crape mytle tree, a redbud tree, gazanias and other
shrubs).

Throughout the garden there are "BAD" plants [weeds (i.e., common
purslane, common groundsel, spurge, etc) and ornamental strawberry
vines].

Will Bandini Pro-Choice Weed & Feed kill the "BAD" plants without
harming the "GOOD" plants?

Should I hand-pull the "BAD" plants before applying the Weed & Feed?


You should first try a swan neck hoe, and forget the chemicals altogether.

This tool slices underneath the weeds. If some of your weeds have a long tap
root (looks like a carrot, sort of), you'll still need to get down and hand
weed. But, for the vast majority of weeds in cultivated soil, this tool is
wonderful. Get a medium-fine file and keep it in the garage for touching up
the edge. Do the same with your spade.
