eelworm - nematodes


Colin:
My garden has been infected with the bulb and stem nematode and I'm
working to rid the garden of them.
They arrived with daffodil bulbs.  
In researching the problem, various things were listed as harboring them:
 pecan trees, cotton, sweet potato, sugar beets, and ornamentals.  
As you seem to be familiar with them, can you tell me what ornamentals,
besides daffodils, harbor the bulb and stem nematode?  This bit of
information has been elusive.
