Using Roundup Around Orange Trees for Weed Control

University of Florida recommends glyphosate (Roundup) for weeds under citrus trees. Apply to weeds only—avoid green bark, leaves, fruit, and trees under 2 years old. Glyphosate translocates from foliage to roots, no soil activity. Rates: 1–4 lb ai/A. Many other herbicides also labeled. Always follow label and avoid contact with tree.

Application Rules

• Spray weeds, not tree.
• Shield trunk and low branches.
• Use on established trees only (2+ years).
