    tree runners

    i have this tree in my garden its an acacia and it is sending out runners all over the place it seems each week there is a new shoot appearing any where it bl***y wants and it grows at some rate and before i know it another has appeared ...the biggest problem is they come up where i dont want them so my question is the ones i dont want can i put weed killer on or will it transfer to my main tree ( which is huge and i love and dont want to loose)
    cheers tracy

    weedkiller will transfer to the main tree, so you just have to keep pulling the damn things off. I'm pretty sure that digging down a bit at the borrom of the sucker and pulling it off where it joins the main tree is the best option - if you cut them, rather than pulling, it only encourages them more
