I have a grass growing in parts of my lawn that looks almost identical to St. Augustine. It spreads by above ground stolons and the leaf blades are rounded at the end like St. Augustine. The only thing that leads me to think it’s a weed is that it seems wilder, growing with longer and slender stolons from a central point more like a Crabgrass. It also flowers just like a Bahiagrass does, with tall stalks and 5 seed spikes rather than 2.Any idea of what this might be? Or advice on herbicides? Thanks for any help.

Take Care,Paul

Wish I could but I don’t have a digi-cam. I’ll try at a later date.
