Beardo Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 What plant are these Burs from (marshland)? - Edit: Seems to be a Bur Marigold/Sticktight/Bidens. They're a nightmare - has anyone got a way of removing them other than pulling them by hand, 'cos i've using sellotape, then packing, then gaffer and none of them are strong enough to shift them!
