Abstract: A plant spray shield for spraying a plant with a chemical, such as a weed killer, has a generally funnel shaped body having an elongated slot extending along one side thereof to allow elongated plant stems and leaves to be inserted into the funnel shaped body through the slot. A handle is attached to the body for holding the body around the plant so that the plant held in the spray shield is isolated while spraying the plant with a chemical to shield other desirable flora and fauna from the sprayed chemicals. The handle is generally L-shaped and the body and handle are molded as a one piece unit. The handle is positioned about 90.degree. from the elongated slot in the body to position the handle away from the direction of the spray being sprayed on the plant. A method is provided for selecting the plant spray shield in accordance with the apparatus, inserting plant stems into the removed slotted portion in the body, and spraying a chemical onto the inserted plant stems and/or leaves.
