Reformed Plant Murderer

Please please PLEASE check if plants are considered "invasive" before you plant. There are many out there that have severe implications to the environment because they're so easy to grow and people get sucked in by their ease.

Any type of climbing ivy, honeysuckle, bamboo even. They're pretty, but evil. This is a really detailed list of invasive plants. Kudzu's definitely on there: http://www.nps.gov/plants/alien/common.htm

And here's one specific to Canada: http://www.rbg.ca/cbcn/en/projects/invasives/i_list.html


And uh Bish, you never told me you were a member. Ever see my member page? I filled it up recently. :D

I just want to say that all of you are really great people. I truly enjoy these forums for the education and for the great conversation.

I'm a network administrator (aka geek) by day and a gardener by night. I also enjoy photography and publish most of my decent pictures on my website. Come visit me, I'd love to hear what you think!
