Canada Thistle

A Message from the Environmental Advisory Council 

by: Nora Sadler, Member 

Invasive plants are non-native plants that can spread rapidly by several means including seed, vegetative growth, and underground roots. They outcompete native plants by taking over available space, absorbing sunlight or shading, using nutrients efficiently, and sometimes changing the soil chemistry. Although they may provide nectar and/or food for insects and birds, they do not support the total life cycle and relationships of insects and birds that are important for a healthy ecology.  To read more about invasive plants such as Canada Thistle, Click Here.
