I know it looks like alligator weed but it's not. Well, I'm pretty sure it's not. It grows in flower beds/garden.

It's a sumbetch. One of those where if you mow it you get a zillion plants. Does anyone know what it is?

OCD.



I broke some of the smaller ones too. They're all the same species though. Wanted to give a good illustration.

Looks like some sort of paspalum. Does it flower any.

Don't think I'd put any of that one in a zig zag.

Not that I've noticed but thanks for the lead. I'll try to check that name.

Not sure if it's paspalum. Looks similar. I can't find my old weed textbook from college.

Maybe email the pics to your extension agent or LSU weed science dept.

My second thought but he said no flowers. But that is a good possibility.

Sure looks like crabgrass.....

MSMA herbicide will take care of it.

It will not harm bermuda grass but will kill other lawn grasses.

Hope this helped !!!!
