Here’s a quick look at some of the common weeds that frequently appear in the area:
Broadleaf Weeds
Broadleaf weeds are characterized, as their name suggests, by their broad, flat leaves. With their bulky appearance, these weeds are an eyesore. But their generally-large size also makes them easy to spot. Common broadleaf weeds in the area include Dandelion, Broadleaf Dock, Broadleaf Plantain, and a handful of others.

Grassy weeds can appear to be grass until you get a closer look. These weeds grow and spread extremely quickly, making managing them effectively essential to maintaining a healthy lawn. Common grassy weeds include Barnyardgrass, Crowfootgrass, and Crabgrass.
