Do you know what this pretty weed flower is now growing on my grass?

And can Archie eat it, since I know it hasnā€™t been treated with any chemicals?

Umbrella Cockatoo- 15? years old..I think?
That could be vetch and it is poisonous-- is it a vine growing through the clovers?
Could also be some type of phlox- hard to tell without a closer shot of the flowers and leaves.
Not totally sure...creeping charlie??

Set the lawnmower blade a notch or two lower and see if you can kill it by limiting its growth. Clover implies too much nourishment, and as you likely know, darn hard to control let alone kill off.

Personally, I never feed from the yard for any number of reasons. Just so very much out there.

The only thing I feed, occasionally, from my backyard is dandelion flowers and greens. Since I never ever fertilize or use any chemicals there, I know they are safe. Plus, I got tons of them.

Haha, Al, I feel your pain! I get a large part of 3 acres of them in the spring, but my guys won't touch them :( I keep trying... The chickens love them though!
