Wendy's right. The website she posted is very good and worth checking out.
It says that bindiis have staggered germination during summer. That means climbers need to keep checking Dec Crag till Feb or March. If anyone sees some at the Pines or elsewhere, please post a notice on this forum.
The website also says that it takes 5 - 6 weeks for seeds to form after the plant has germinated. In my experience this is not the case after LATE summer rain ie. Feb rain will produce weeds that set seed when the plant is still very small.
I agree with the person who said that the best way to check on possible infestations is to walk around barefoot, That's how I discovered my own little crop in the back yard!
