I agree, too many invasive plants are getting way out of control, especially in whatever wild natural areas we still have left. I notice there's a pic of Pokeweed, however. It's a native and although it can spread fairly easily it is considered beneficial for wildlife because of its berries. I keep some in my yard for that reason...the birds just love the berries! And in this arid area it doesn't spread very much.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
