Capeweed in Canberra Lawns: How I Spot It, Stop It, and Keep It Out
Capeweed spreads fast in Canberra lawns, forming flat rosettes and bright yellow flowers that smother turf. In this guide, I show you how to spot capeweed early, prevent outbreaks with overseeding, aeration, fertilising, and higher mowing, and control active weeds before they set seed. I also cover aftercare, raking, light top dressing, overseeding, and fertilising, so healthy grass fills the gaps.

I also cover aftercare, light top dressing, overseeding, and steady watering, so dense turf keeps oxalis out. For reliable results without the trial and error, let The Lawn Firm represent your lawn.
