From the tumbleweed capitol of the world, I must report: they're
relatively easy to control without resorting to chemical means. [And we
garden on a large scale with very limited time.]
Tumbleweeds can be easily pulled, bare-handed, until they develop stickers.
If they get past infancy, needle-nosed pliers come in handy -- just grasp
the tap root and tug.
The secret is not letting them go to seed -- whether they're only two feet
tall or six-foot monsters.
Unless, of course, you want to explore the possibilities of hybridizing
tumbleweeds instead of iris.....
