Plum Tree

ljrandolph asks:

Question

Several years ago I cut woody weeds beneath my plum tree almost to the ground and painted the stub with brush killer. I accidentally painted some suckers from the plum tree. A few large branches on the tree died, and I cut them off. Two years later the rest of the tree is producing lucious healthy-looking plums. Are they safe to eat?


Answer

Yep, your plums should be just fine to eat after several years. There are very few herbicides on market especially for home use that have a multiple year residual, most only last a few months.
