Can anyone tell me if it is safe to use weed killer around my Musa Basjoo Trees? I have some unknown weeds that are choking out my trees, and it is getting out of control. I was thinking of using a product like 'Weed-be-gone', or something similar. Thanks!

Yes it is - just be sure not to spray the banana plants - any part of them - at all. Weed killers are systemic so you have to spray the leaves of what you want to die. I've never had a problem with weeds choking out my banana plants - it shouldn't be a problem.
