Did a google search, but the clover they say it is has a flower. This has more like a yellow bud.

I went to spray using Round Up for Lawns. It's supposed to kill clover, weeds and crabgrass without hurting the grass. I sprayed this stuff with that and there is some discoloration on one group of it that I sprayed, nothing on all the others.

It's funny because I thought, "You know, I have a little clover I should probably take care of." Well, a little clover is actually a good chunk of my yard!

What kind of grass is it in? I have had good luck with "Image" but I believe it is for Bermuda and maybe a couple other types

You got me, but its a cold weather grass. I think most grass mixes they sell at the store are some sort of ryegrass, IIRC. It's real thin blades.

Looks like Buttercup. A weed that spreads very fast. You can spray with a 2-4d and not hurt the grass.

I've had this stuff in my yard. It spreads like crazy but is easily controlled with a dose of Weedmaster. I mix it in a two gallon tank sprayer and spot apply if I see it. It's gone in a week.

It isn't clover, it is Oxalis (Ox Al Iss), some speakers stress the first syllable, others the second.

Somewhat to very resistant to the usual broad leaf pesticides like 2,4-d used for weeds in lawns, but it is a very common weed with lots of options for control.

On my "lawn" I just mow stuff like that down with everything else. If it's green and has roots to keep the soil in place it can stay. Wink
