We are going to be putting in more flowerbeds and they will go where we have lawn now. Do you happen to know of a herbicide that will get rid of the grass but won't harm new plantings. There used to be a soil fumigant on the market I used previously (can't remember the name) that killed plants and bugs and worked great, but Uncle Sam decided it wasn't safe.

Don't you just HATE when that happens? Unfortunately it happens more and more.

I have no answer to your question, but probably the local county extension agent could help you.
