Dandelions, Clover and Crabgrass, Oh My!

I just took a good look at my lawn and the enemy is starting to gather for the summer long battle.

I would really love to have the perfect lawn all nice and green and weed free. Yeah right, in a perfect world and such.



Know your enemy. OK, the dictionary defines Dandelion as n. A common weedy plant with many-rayed yellow flowers. Sounds somewhat innocent and I do like yellow flowers. What the dictionary does not say is that this ferocious little plant spreads with lightning speed and will take over my entire lawn in a matter of weeks.

I have met the enemy and . . . now I'm going to Home Depot to restock my arsenal before the battle begins.
