I will be pruning about 80 roses shortly - some of which have
perennial weeds at their base which are hard to get to. My best shot
is to get at the weeds just after I have pruned them. What can I use
on the weeds that will not harm the roses or the rose roots. My garden
is chemical free so I don't mind using a small amount of chemicals for
this particular task. Thanks in advance. Randy
