Some type of weed is rapidly spreading throughout my Kingwood St. Augustine grass lawn. My best guess is buttonweed from a Google search. However, there are lots of plants that look similar and I'd like to get the treatment correct the first time. It grows in patches that are spreading out in multiple locations. I'm hoping that someone here can help me identify it. If I can identify it then I can figure out how to get rid of it. Apparently Scott's Weed and Feed doesn't prevent this one, or I'm not using enough of it.Weed adjacent to St. Augustine. Shoe for scale. Weed has little white flowers.Closeup of some strands I pulled out.A patch of the weed below.
@Peabody: Â I think it is nut grass. Â I hate it!
