Hello everybody, I’ve just moved and the new home’s garden has onions, mint, salvia and other edible plants growing near a Rhododendron (between 50cm and 2mt away, growing in the same piece of land).

Is it safe to eat any of it? Or is it possible to “save” the salvia and rosemary by moving them to a separate pot and waiting for sometime?

    I don’t think you have anything to worry about. I’m not aware of any mechanism by which rhododendron roots could transmit toxins to other plants through the soil. You’d have to eat a good amount of rhododendron before it’d seriously affect you anyway
