Broadleaf plantain, also known scientific Majo Plantago name, is a small plant, leaves, as growth in thin and weakened sections of your lawn. There is a problem with this pest, which forms a large spread of colonies, choking the grass around him. I’ve seen completely covered with grass with this material. Here are some basic information about this weed: It grows everywhere in the United States, southern Canada, most countries in Europe and North and Central Asia. Grows well in full sun or partial shade. Its rosette of leaves 10.5 inches in width, with each sheet 2-8 inches in length, 4.1 inches in width. The leaves hug the ground and displace healthy grass. The main advantage is that this plant better than others, where the soil is compacted. So if your lawn is a small gap, which can easily grow there, even if the land is strong, suffocating the surrounding grass. The beginning of summer until September, you can see the seed stalks. Distribution of seeds and sprout roots below ground. If you broadleaf plantain, can be a sign that the grass is cut too low. If you want to try to remove the plant itself, the only way is to remove them. You will need to do this several times over several months in order to effectively control the plant. Elimination of plants before they produce seeds also helps accelerate the process. Pulling plants, holding the leaves tend to rupture, allowing the further spread of the roots in the underground, forming new plants. Mowing does not work, because of how low the leaves. In addition, seeds and plant parts can contaminate lawn mowers and other equipment, so just cut the plants spread to new areas. Herbacides may be effective in combating the banana seedlings, and may also reduce the power of established plantain plants. Please ask your lawn care company to assist in the implementation of the right herbacides for this weed.
