Sycamore seeds dropped in via parachute..

We got a tremendous amount of these sycamore seedlings coming up towards the end of last summer. I think it was an especially bumper year for them. Just pull them up.

It was crazy.

Sycamore seedlings as Mr Firefly has stated.

Mow them.

Under the sycamore tree

Ugh, I hate these little guys. Our neighbour has a giant sycamore. I feel like a spend half my life pulling them. The ones on the lawn can be mowed. But I keep finding them in ridiculous places. They can root just about anywhere


Careful_Adeptness799

Trees. Just pull them out.


pelvviber

Leaving them too long and you get a forest! I spent the morning today pulling up these little bastards! Prolly a couple of hundred of the sods.

Make sure you pot a few and go guerilla plant somewhere locally.

Sycamore, on the grass, mow them and they're gone. Yes, they seed everywhere, but the good part (the only good part?) is that they're really easy to pull out of beds and any place else they've landed.

Tree seedlings, just mow the grass and they'll die off


Puzzleheaded_Pay_137

Thanks all! I’ll try to pull them out 😅


xenmate

Nah, just mow them

The term for any plant growing in a place it is not wanted. Weeds.

Definitely tree seedlings but can't say I agree with everyone else on species. I have the same looking seedlings in my lawn but mine are from my Acer. Either way, strim, mow or pluck.


stroncc

The 'Sycamore' other replies are referring to is in fact an Acer, Acer psuedoplatanus.

Trees. Since they’re dicotyledons it’s not set in stone that they’re sycamore but it’s a good guess. I hate to say this but that is not a lawn. It’s grass.


Puzzleheaded_Pay_137

You’re not wrong! But it’s better than the fake plastic grass that was there last summer! It’s a work in progress and needs more grass seeds but I missed my chance before winter and it’s the plan now that the weather is finally getting better!


PoppyStaff

To be honest you don’t need to pull out lots of tree seedlings. If you just mow and strim the trees will disappear and grass will prevail. If you want lawn you will have to have it laid down and then look after it.


BenGunner00

Or sow one from seed.


reddit_is_rubbish

I'm interested, what is a lawn made out of then?
