[Arid_gardener] Question from Home-Hort WWW page

[Olin Miller]

See Pima County Hort. Agent John Begaman's article, "Ants in Your Plants", 
at
http://ag.arizona.edu/gardening/news/articles/15.22.html

The article gives leafcutter ant prevention methods but does not recommend 
ant-proof plants.  Are there really are such plants.
