Notes:

We canÕt identify this weed that spreads with rhizomes or stolen and has a pink flower. It seems very hardy and weÕd love advice on getting rid of it.

    Mimosa Purdica or “Sensitive Plant”
    It needs to be killed like Poison Ivy with brush killers with Triclopyr. Anything that kills this, kills grass too. Pulling it doesn’t help.

    Creeping memos. I have it all over my yard. How can I kill it so it does not come back? I have spray some of it and after awhile more will come up where I killed off some of it.
    And where did this stuff come from?
    thanks

    Do the leaves close when you touch them? Looks like ‘sensitive grass’ . Grows all over in Hawaii. Not sure what real name is.
