Identifying Common Invasive Plants

ID : 1356   
« back to classes page
CourseGraphic Invasive plants overpower native and ornamental species and then spread quickly to starve native plants and animals from sunlight, nutrients, and habitat, which disrupts an interconnected biological and ecological place-based network that has developed over millions of years. On this walking tour at Canonchet Farm, learn about the major invasive species found locally and how to identify them, remove them, and maintain removal by replanting the area with native species with dense root systems. Along the trail we will observe the effects of invasive plants in a second growth woodland and discuss best practices for homeowners in controlling the spread of plants like privet and burning bush if they want to keep rather than eliminate them.
