Use of Roundup


I have used Roundup for several years right in and next to my iris 
with never any problem.  BUT, I don't spray, I brush it on.  I use a 
small disposable foam brush, because there is no splashing with them. 
A little brush on one or two leaves of the weeds is usually the kiss 
of death, and as long as I don't touch the iris, no problem.  This is 
especially useful for me because neighbors on two sides--naturally, 
the north and west, the directions from which prevailing winds blow--
don't control their dandelions at all.  So I find that Roundup 
applied in this careful way lets me clean out the iris beds, the only 
way I know to get rid of dandelions & similar weeds.
