From one of your photos, I see the curse of common buckthorn has made it to Denver.
ReplyDeleteYou might not have been annoyed by a wetland containing purple loosestrife in Denver. However, I have watched a wetland full of diverse native species turn into a monoculture of purple loosestrife. Seeing all these great plants disappear was enough to convince me of purple loosestrife's perils.
I totally missed the Rhamnus in the picture of the mayapple in seed! You have sharp eyes for these weeds, James (practice hones the skill no doubt!). Buckthorns do sow annoyingly in gardens here, but I doubt they'll be as invasive as they are in maritime climates--in nature at least! Our worse weeds are xerophytes from our sister dry climates. Loosestrife just doesn't have the oomph here in Colorado it does in the East and Midwest: weeds are so contextual! I admire and applaud your efforts to eradicate them!
ReplyDeleteIt is less an effort to eradicate them and more an attempt to hold down the fort from the siege.
