The debate goes on....Asking for more information... Aftermidnight, can you tell us the texture of these leaves? Are they rubbery or slightly felted? Are they stiff or soft? Did they hurt her hands when your friend pulled them up?

Three more responses from I know to be very knowledgeable people. ( a little copy and Paste :)) "Given the foliage appearance and long tap root, some sort of thistle seems a very likely candidate. And many species, like Canada thistle, do develop a rhizomatous root system." "Yes: it would be...

I so agree, don't feed the fire, but sometimes I admit between clenching my teeth I also have to sit on my hands. This person, (don't know if it was a guy or a gal), whatever the point he/she were trying to make was made in an extremely rude way. Not going to repeat what he/she said. Since then...

I've had two responses so far, both seem to think it may be in the thistle family, they need a better picture. Annette

Don't laugh guys but I put a splint on one of mine. I only had 3 seeds of this one and somehow one vine was almost broken though. Made a splint out pieces of wooden skewers and masking tape, what ever works :)

Yep, that works too, whatever turns your crank ;).

This is how I do mine, I could describe, but found this on youtube, this is how I do mine.

Hard to tell from the pic but does seem to resemble an Aloe I once had, name escapes me :barnie. I posted the pic on another forum, these guys are good. Will come back if I get an answer. Annette

A great big HAPPY BIRTHDAY from me too, hope you had a great one. Annette

@baymule when I read Seeds comments I bust out laughing, I called hubby and he burst out laughing too, this is how we treat GOOD friends around here, it can get pretty rowdy at times. Actually makes me feel like one of the family. Mind you this granny still has a wooden spoon;). Annette

The trials and tribulations of a home owner :(, reminds me of a time one freezing cold, wintery night when hubby was working night shift. I woke up in the wee hours to a loud bang coming from the basement. On investigation I found the door had blown off our oil furnace, could hardly see through...

Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me. Nana Na Nana :tongue.
