If there is one persistent type of unwanted vegetation that is very difficult to control in most lawns it has to be the “grass like” weed named yellow nutsedge.
Yellow nutsedge loves growing in continuously wet soil areas!
Not only does yellow nutsedge grow from small tubers (aka nutlets), but it spread by seed and rhizome as well. The leaf is triangular shaped at the base and most selective herbicides only stunt the plant, and not kill it. However, there have been great strides in selective herbicidal control as of late, and hopefully one
day, there will be full-proof method to eradicate yellow nutsedge from existing stands of turfgrass (without time consuming manual removal).
