I am certain that my yard has AIDS and it will cost Tree Fiddy to get rid of this with fire but...
What is this plant and what is best way to kill them off? A bunch of these have suddenly sprouted up in my side lawn. TIA.
ETA- A horticulturist is a plant expert and not some has that opines on the social interactions of loose women you heathens.

that's called texas bluegrass. try spraying your yard with a solution of hydrogen peroxide & metamucil. that should clear it up.

From the pics, I believe you're using "lawn" pretty loosely.

Your post made me LOL but I have no idea what that plant is.

Flowering bluegrass. By the looks of your it's the least of your worries.

It's vociferous vulgaris .
It's the horticultural equivalent of HIV.
Napalm strike is called for.

It looks to me like it's the best thing you have going for that "yard".

May be a native one. There are many native species that like wetter areas but also lots of non native ornamental varieties.
And damn you don't have a blade of grass in that "yard". All weeds

My first thought as well. shite. He has broadleaf plaintains, Carolina geranium...might have poison oak around as well.

You have a beautiful lawn. Makes me want to take my shoes off and frolic.

Someone forgot to put the pre emergent down in January.

Nice call...I wouldn't mind having those in that 10" wide 15 ft long area that's in-between my wood fence and driveway.

why do you want to kill the prettiest thing in your "yard"?

It's in the sedge family and it's a cool-season grass. It will die on its own when the temperatures stay more consistently warm soon.
