Help! Garden is being over run!
8 years ago
Moved into a new (to me) house 2 months ago in Long Island, NY. The flower beds are being being over run by this weed grass. It grows real fast. I dug a few out and found that it has a root ball attached to it. They grow in bunches and spread fast. Anyone know what this is? More importantly anyone know how to kill it and keep it from coming back?
