...but we FU this Spring.
After several days of hand weeding our Strawberry and Asparagus Beds in the early Spring/Late Winter,
we noticed that our Honey Bees (we keep 2 hives) were foraging on Henbit which survived the several late frosts,
so we let it grow to keep the Bees happy.
It went to seed, and now our Asparagus and Strawberry beds are inundated with Henbit.

...but mostly, the Bermuda grass is a constant, year round battle.
