It is winter. Your family is tucked inside your home, shutting out the bitter cold. As you sip your hot chocolate, lawn care is the last thing on your mind. You don't need to worry about weeds for at least 2 months.
Are you sure?
Veronica would beg to differ. And who is Veronica? She is a lawn expert, but unfortunately, she is an expert at destroying your lawn, not caring for it. Lawn care is the farthest thing from her mind. Veronica, short for Veronica officinalis, is one of the earliest of lawn weeds to invade your lawn.
She creeps in during the winter before you've even thought of calling your lawn care company. By the winter's end, her roots have already formed and green stalks are beginning to grow. She can grow well in many different environments.
I'd go outside and check for this weed right now if I were you. It has hairy green stems, around 10-50 cm long. The stems normally cover the ground in dense mats, sending up short vertical shoots with small violet flowers. Normally the leaves are 1.5-5 cm long, and around 1-3 cm wide. A lawn care expert can help you identify it if you have trouble.
Veronica officinalis, sometimes known as "Gypsyweed," "Speedwell," or "Paul's betony," thrives in cool, moist soils. However, Veronica officinalis can take hold in any areas that have been disturbed, or if the turf is thin.
Actually, depending on who you talk to, some may say Veronica officinalis is not a weed, but rather, a useful plant. Historically, Veronica officinalis was actually used medicinally to treat coughs, stomach and urinary disorders, rheumatism, and as a general tonic. It originated in Europe and western Asia, but at some point was introduced to North America and has spread into the wild there as well. However, despite its value as an herbal remedy, any homeowner who loves lawn care will tell you that Veronica officinalis is a weed.
If your lawn is infested with Veronica officinalis, I encourage you to contact us at Natural Way Lawn Care for details on how to remove it from your lawn.
