Got both of these growing in my bermuda and imma near Atlanta.

Both look like same weed but some are purple leaved while some are green leaved. Bad pics but leaves look almost like mini clover leaves. Assuming its something extremely common...

The green is oxalis and the purple is creeping oxalis.

Can I spot treat with Atrazine? Or no because I've already done multiple treatments of Winter Cocktail?

Will do! I actually just did a search and found your post helping Papa Pogey's doveweed issue. I will order some Celsius asap and clean that up!

I hope y'all know how much we appreciate y'all help. Hopefully lawn care is a hobby of yours so you enjoy this lol.

ETA: Anyone know where to get Celsius in NOLA? I looked on domyown.com but they no longer carry Celsius.

Thanks Ronk, using local Tru-Green kinda service. Still have this after 6 treatments starting last August. Thought this should be gone by now?

90% should have been gone the application after it popped up

And yes, I don't mind helping at all. I know a few others don't either like craw. Usually my neighbors will ask me something and an hour later I realized that they have a completely glazed over look.

Also had about 7-8 clumps of this that I killed with Roundup. Dallis grass?

Lawn burweed, aka sticker weed. Believe or not that is a cool season weed whose seeds germinate around Nov or so.

Dallas, the oxalis is also commonly called wood sorrel on alot of labels. It's actually an edible herb and makes a good tea. It's one of the main ingredients in Frankfurt sauce.

Any Bermuda-safe weed killer will kill it, but it is slow to die. It will throw seeds before it dies and then more grows, so use a pre-emergent with the surface killer.

Same advice for Dallis.

You should bring this up to your lawn company.

Why haven't you started your annual garden thread on UGA Sports Board yet?

We need the distraction.
