To all,
HA! My U.arenaria had no problems at all with worms! I'm serious
this plant is really the king of weeds! I used to have a TERRIBLE problem
with worms in my greenhouse back in Brazil. I think it was some native
species which came along in one of my collecting trips. All I know is that
it was small, thin, and reddish and soon invaded almost every pot I had.
It did the most damage in the pots where I was germinating seeds. Yet
U.arenaria kept right on growing, flowering, and doing what it does best:
invading other pots! The worms didn't even seem to slow it down!
Condolences to those who have U.arenaria,
Fernando Rivadavia
