Question:
By Kari from Tooele.
I have a small field of wildflowers, near my lawn, that did very well last year. However, the grass began to take over both inside and around the flowers. It was beginning to choke out my flowers, so I would like to take care of it before it gets out of control this year. I also have trees and sagebrush in that area that I want to retain. Is there something I can use to kill the grass, but not anything else? Thanks.

There are two different types of plant types; Monocots (broad leaved plants) and dicots (grass-like leaves). There are things that you can spray that will kill either type or both.
You can use a grass killer to kill the grass, but if any of your wildflowers have a grass like leaf (this includes daffodils and tulips) it will kill them as well.
