This spring, as plants emerge and shrubs come back to life, many non-native invasive plants are among them. This reminder is from the Wildflower Association of Michigan (WAM).

"Please be on the lookout for the following species in your home landscapes and also in natural areas you visit. The following are some of the most common and widespread invasive plant species in Michigan and the Great Lakes Region. WAM encourages you to remove these species from your home landscape when identified. If you see these species in your local nature preserves, parks, or public lands, please contact the steward or organization that manages the site and let them know where the invasive population was seen."

Yesterday's article on Michigan's invasive plants contained a slide show of ten of the identified plants. The remaining photos are in today's slide show.
