Well, where I was from in town, this is the most awful, pernicious perennial weed there is which will spread over your entire property in two-three seasons and crowd out everything you are trying to grow and an almost guarantee that there are already 100,000 seeds ready to go in this picture. Also a clover that most of your neighbors won’t do shit about because they think it looks pretty and they also seem to enjoy using their leaf blower to spread the seeds all over everyone’s property. God I hate it.

When you pull it there’s a sturdy central root that tends to be deep – pull gently but steadily, otherwise it’ll grow back. Also wear gloves because it has a milky, sticky sap.

Spurge – the funnest weed to pull!!

let it grow as a ground cover. pull any other weed. you can cut the edges. keep controlled by pulling it out with help of a shovel. plant anything other plant in the middle of it. I think it looks nice.

I posted the same shit last week. It’s weird because last summer I didn’t see any of it in my yard/garden, now this summer it’s trying to grow from everywhere.

Spurge is the asshole of pur Landscape Gardening business. Pulls easy, but you HAVE to get it when small, before it seeds.

If I’m correct, this is a cousin of the purslane but very toxic for us to consume

Looks like purslane to me
Spotted Spurge, Euphorbia maculata.
Some type of spurge. Toxic
