Question from: Kathy C.
I have established beds of Azaleas and Asiatic Jasmine ground cover surrounding the base of 2 fully grown oak trees, but the Jasmine is an unending growth of clover. I have tried pulling it out and every once in a while I get lucky and get the root and all, but that doesn't happen very often. I have spent entire weekends pulling clover only to have it rear its ugly growth by Monday morning. I understand clover loves water, but how far back can I cut the sprinkler system timer back to reduce the clover and still not have it affect the Jasmine and Azaleas? Is there a weed killer you would recommend that won't kill off the Jasmine or hurt the Azaleas at the same time?
Answer: There is no herbicide to spray on the clover and jasmine. If possible, you can spot kill the weeds with Roundup but you have to be sure to hit only the weeds you want to kill. Otherwise you are doing some more pulling.
