Talkback: Dandelion

I find common salt - you know the type you use for cooking - will kill a dandelion right down to the root - yes it leave you a white patch in your lawn, but that soon grows over! Thanks PJ. I will try this. I'll try the salt option too but plan by PamelaJ

Weeds in lawn

Hiya, anyone have experience with a lawn covered in dandelions. When I remove using garden fork, I usually end up breaking root due to depth and a big hole in lawn. We only turfed a couple of years ago and its starting to look a mess. Any advice by CanIDoThis

Does anyone know the name of this plant?

Was interrupted by trying to upload photo and failing. Sorry. This plant is very like a dandelion but taller with thin grass-like leaves emanating from its stem. The flower is like a "neat" dandelion and the seedhead is just beautiful. Huge by fiona10
