What Is This Weed? -Virginia Buttonweed

Chris, Mr. D and director of horticulture at the Dixon Gallery and Gardens Dale Skaggs educate us on Virginia Buttonweed. This pesky plant is a voracious grower and can come from seeds, roots fragments and even stem fragments! To help keep this wily weed out of your yard make sure your soil is well drained. Removing them by hand isn't recommended but can work if you get all of the root material or you can remove it with persistent herbicide use.
