Default Kill Clover!

Hi,

The clover is flourishing in my yard, particularly backyard. I used
to be able to control them with Scott Plus 2 (early spring and late
fall). However, this time it did not seem work. I also sprayed with
those 1 gallon B-Gon (sp?) and it made the clover cover yellowish, but
not dead.

Is there anything I can buy that will kill that weed? Or I'd better
call some landscapers?

I am in Maryland, BTW.


Funny about clover. About 50 years ago, clover was purposely added to
lawns. It spread easly, was green, and looked fine. I can remember my
Dad agonizing about how much white clover to add to the grass seed he was
buying. Then we invented broad-leaf weed killers, and clover was
killed. Now we think of clover as an evil weed.

You're showing your age now, William. Remember bentgrass lawns?
