| I'm sorry if this question has been asked before. In trying to learn all I can about dahlias ,I see a phrase that I don't understand. What does it mean when someone says "Ants farm aphids". There seems to be some disagreement as to whether ants eat aphids or not. I'm confused. |

| I'm probably wrong too--but I've always heard that Aphids to Ants, are like milk cows to us. That they exude a milky substance that Ants relish, I've even hears that they "place " them on certain flowers. Correct me, if I'm wrong? |
