How to Eliminate Mallow Growing in Yard #870458

Asked May 28, 2024, 3:18 PM EDT

Hi, I live in Delaware and am seeing mallow creep into my lawn. I can it is starting to grow in my flower beds in the back yard. It appears to be coming from the open space between my fence line and the neighboring wooded area. Is there an herbicide that will eliminate the mallow yet not harm my grass/flowers?

Thank you for reaching out  to Cooperative Extension. Mallow is a common lawn weed in our area. Our friends at University of Maryland have a fact sheet that you may find informative. https://extension.umd.edu/resource/common-mallow/
And one from our neighbor to the north, Penn State. https://extension.psu.edu/landscape-management-common-mallow

I hope that you find this information helpful.
Great. Thanks for the information and quick response.

Respectfully, 

Randy
