How to get rid of oxalis in your lawn

There’s a low growing weed with tiny heart leaves taking over patches of my lawn. It seemed to explode over summer and into autumn. I’m pretty sure it’s oxalis but I want to know the best way to get on top of it.

    That is creeping oxalis a prolific seeder. NZLA Gold takes care of it really well.

      @Garry B thanks Gary I did think that I will try some gold as you mentioned.

    Yeah, Garry’s right on the money with the ID. NZLA Gold isn’t recommended for warm season lawns like Kikuyu or Couch, and you should wait at least 12 months after new seed has germinated before using it. Both points may not apply to you, but thought I'd mention for others reading.

    For weeds like clover and oxalis, add NZLA Sticker to your mix, it helps the spray stick properly and improves absorption, especially on those waxy leaf surfaces.
