Have never heard that. The times I have used this technique, there  
were always plants nearby (within inches) and I have never observed  
any evidence of injury. The only way I think that might occur would  
be if the plants had formed root grafts like those in the red oak  
group do, where the herbicide could actually pass through a shared  
vascular system.
