Hi everyone.

janartmuse - I've seen this in other pic's from other countries as well, and I once read where in Mexico they sometimes become a nuisance because they are so heavy, and that the authorities have to spray them with a weedicide to kill them.

Below is a link to another interesting article on this same topic.

All the best, Nev.

Oh what a shame, though i can see how they'd be a real problem. What amazing plants, eh? J
