South Florida is where a lot of people go to escape the cold winters and snow up North, but we are home to a white, flowering, fluffy weed called Florida pusley. Scientifically known as Richardia scabra, this common Palm Beach County weed is what locals refer to as Florida snow. Florida pusley is one of the most common and tenacious weeds in South Florida and can rapidly take over bare spots in your Palm Beach County lawn. Ironically Florida pusley blooms the heaviest during some of the coldest months in South Florida.
Florida Pusley is the Weed They Call Florida Snow
Pre-emergent herbicides are the best way to control future Florida pusley outbreaks in your West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Wellington or Jupiter lawn. The proper pre-emergent herbicide will reduce the number of seeds that grow into future adult weeds. You can probably use the same pre-emergent herbicide as you do for dandelions because they are both in the same broadleaf weed family.
