Hi. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of clover like weeds growing amongst my plants and taking over. Some are green and some are a reddish brown. I don't want to kill my plants by putting something on these weeds, but help please

    Sounds like Oxalis.
    Not much you can do, except keep digging them out and try not to let them go to seed, as they shoot them in all directions. They are a pain for everyone - visited Arley Hall gardens yesterday and they had them too, in several different colours.

    Thanks for the replies. It’s a full time job keeping it all down but it must be done.

    Pansyface. You're very lucky then. It's such a nuisance. You think you've got rid of it and there it is next day again.....

    Dig deep and find the tuber/bulblets.
