spread a seat very quickly. and they will choke out native plants as well as make it harder for wildlife because wildlife need native plants to feed on. they are basically on a good thing. that' s not a good thing. common ones. this particular one you find a lot, sometimes in the fall, because it is very attractive. japanese bittersweet. the birds like to eat the very sound in the seats go through the digestive system. you will find all over the river banks, places that don' t get mow ed very often, possibly in your own yard. sean: i' ve seen it before. margaret: this has a white flower that smells really sweet. it is lovely. this is the japanese knotweed, or the japanese bamboo, that grows by the side of the road, a to 10 feet tall.

five-year process because they come back. they are resilient! you can use plastic, either black or clear plastic, that you can tightly to the ground so the sun bakes them. those are the more common ways. the big deal in new hampshire is that it is illegal to move a lot of these plans around when they have living or potentially living plant parts, because we don' t want to spread them. sean: i don' t think a lot of people know that. margaret: we have an extension on how to dispose of them learn more about the plants themselves, the department of agriculture has a book on invasive species that you can download for free. sean: if you see these on a wreath summer, they are spreading. even though they look nice.
