    Hi,

    I couldn't classify myself as a gardener, I try to keep things alive and I try to grow things that aren't weeds. I have a horrible weed that I cannot seem to get rid of in one small corner, in fact, no matter what I do, it is taking over a rockery, the lawn and is now jumping about the garden.

    Can anyone tell me what it is and how to get rid of it? It looks like duckweed from a pond, I've tried weed and feed, pulling it out, but it's so quick that it grows back over the space before I know what's what.

    Thanks in advance...

    :help:

    Mind your own business? (it's a plant not a rude reply!)

    You know I think that's the one! I did chuckle when I read that :D

    Although, the bad news is I'm not keen on the control method I've found for it, sounds like the only way is to remove the section and reseed.

    Oh dear, but thanks for the pointers.
