Discovering Invasive Plants
I was quite surprised to wander down there this weekend and see several plants in full bloom. And my heart sank when I realized that they were almost all aggressive invasive plants. Using the PlantNet app, I found common burdock, tree of heaven, riverbank grape and spear thistle. And some clueless soul had planted peppermint! I walked around the corner to Howard Beach Park and there I found black poplar, white sweet-clover, stiff tumbleweed.
