Wind!

I am thinking about giving B a bad time about all his white top. Tell him he must have found a market for white top seed. Combine his place and make a killing.
There is a lot of it that came up in the fire area. Some big patches that they will have to spray with a drone. Way too steep for wheeled vehicles.
Will you post a picture of White Top, please?
We have leafy spurge. We detest leafy spurge. It's so hard to get rid of. I think the best you can do is
control it. Many people don't know what it is.

A friend posted a photo on FB of her lovely flowering plant. She said it was Flowering Spurge.
It has yellow flowers. I looked up Flowering Spurge. Flowering Spurge are said to have white flowers.
Yellow blossoms are Leafy Spurge. He blossoms are yellow.
Then I went to a house in town. The whole flower garden was Flowering Spurge. (yellow).
How can these nurseries sell Surge plants? I know that Leafy Spurge was brought over from France
as a decorative plant. I just don't know what to do about the plants these ladies have. They most likely
wouldn't believe me.

Maybe I'll call the Nursery here in town. That might be where they came from.

Find out when they are not home and visit with some Tordon.

My cell camera wasn't working this AM when I tried to get a photo for you of the white top along an alfalfa field. It looks more yellow in the morning light this time of year. This is an old photo taken of an abandon pasture.

Sounds extremely invasive. I was going to ask if it popped up in the burned areas, but according to this info
it does quite well anywhere. Has an impressive root system.

 
So I ran up on the hill and took a few pictures of this fine species. It doesn't harm cattle to eat it but 99% of the time they won't eat it. What it does do is take over and out compete everything. These pictures were all taken up in the area which burned. You will notice burnt off sage brush in all the pictures. Also the smaller junipers are history but some of the bigger one survived. That is because they choke off the grass under them so it didn't get hot enough to cause them to burn.

A. It is starting to spread up the hill
B. There wasn't any white top in this area a year ago.
C. I know I spread grass seed in this area in the fall.
D. A close up picture of this fine species
