Hi Teressa, yes. a pre emergent is a dust or pellet formular that you put down around your established perennials to keep the weed seeds from sprouting. It works on most all seeds, so if you have a bed of seed started cosmos and zinnias, or reseeding perennials like money plant or four o'clocks, you wouldn't want to use a pre emergent on those beds.
