Stewart, R.T. | Reeves, R.G. | Jones, L.G.
The spurge nettle (Jatropha texana), also frequently called bull nettle, tread softly, and Malo mujer, is a plant well known to many persons as a thorny or prickly weed that has a painful sting. However, investigations by the authors show that it possesses certain interesting peculiarities not generally known. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to call attention to some of its less known characteristics, and to report results of preliminary experiments for its control.
