Weed Identification Chart
Author: Stefan Palm
Got weeds in your lawn? We’ve put together a chart of the most common weeds found in South Australian lawns and turf. Most weeds are selectively controllable meaning you can, in most cases apply a herbicide that will kill the weed and not the lawn. Use this chart to identify weeds in your lawn so that you can effectively control them before they get on top of your lawn! If you require further help or cannot find the weed troubling you, feel free to bring in a sample to Paul Munns Instant Lawn and we will be happy to assist you.
With over 40 years of experience, we guarantee we can help you out.

Fleabane and flcickweed [Cardamine Hirsuta]

Hi Ernie, we can help you out with that! Both Fleabane and flickweed are broadleaf weeds, which means you can control them selectively in lawns with a broadleaf herbicide such as Bow and Arrow. I would highly recommend mixing this with a surfactant such as Heiniger Wetter and Spreader to maximise efficacy. If you don't need to protect your lawn or garden plants, you can just use glyphosate (ie Roundup, No-Grow) mixed with a surfactact. Thanks for your enquiry!
