Understanding Weeds

Weeds are self-seeking plants that grow wherever they can find the space in your garden, and love to call your lawn home. Any species belonging to the plant kingdom which includes ferns, trees and algae can be classified as a weed. Many plants formerly used as crops, culinary and medicinal herbs, and ornamentals are present-day weeds. If you watch the wind blowing, you will see weed seeds within the gust of wind that then drop
into your garden.

One of the first steps to treat your weeds is to understand which type you have:

Annuals

Even though weeds like chickweed and groundsel germinate, flower and succumb within a year, they can swiftly take over your lawn with their enormous number of seeds.

Bulbil Producing

Bulbil-producing: Plants such as buttercups and Oxalis develop a web of bulbils – minuscule bulblike structures – within the soil, which are arduous to eliminate. Chemical weed-killers stand as the only robust method of control.

Perennials

Perennials: Common garden weeds like daisies, thistles, and dandelions pop up year after year. The majority have far-reaching root systems, rendering them cumbersome to eliminate.

It’s important to treat weeds because they can have an adverse effect on other areas of your garden. Apart from being unsightly, these nasties can damage your plants and can become a fire hazard when left to dry. The signs of weeds include:

Discolouration of your plants

Stunted growth of your plants

Plants start to die
