[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 412480, member: 539"] No, they don't. Sandburrs are a grassy type of plant with a rather spikey, spreading, unique growth habit. They have jointed leaves, they can reach 6, maybe 8" in height, and they produce long 'shoots' (for lack of a better word) that contain up to maybe 20 round, spikey stickers. I would venture to guess that you're thinking of goatheads - aka puncture weeds, in this part of the world - which have a flat, radiating, expanding type growth pattern, and produce a larger type of seed which has something like 6 to 8 'prongs' (again, for lack of a better word) extending from it. Unlike sandburrs - which are in the grass family - goatheads are easy to kill, 2-4d will take care of them in a heartbeat. [/QUOTE]
