You're welcome, Pam.  If they're growing around and you pulled one,
that could very well be the problem.  When I first started this
garden, the land was full of ragweed and I spent my summers with
streaming sinuses...finally got them and only rarely does a seedling
show up...it has a short life span.  Now, I don't have any 'hayfever'
problems...ragweed is the worst for allergies IMO.
