Native Plant Gardening

Accidentally sowed an extremely healthy population of pokeweed instead of Culver’s Root.

    I got Culver’s Root seeds from Prairie Moon and was excited that they grew so vigorously. Unfortunately I think that the soil I used in the milk jug was contaminated with pokeweed. Better than an invasive, I suppose! But I’ll need to move these out of my garden beds and into the hedgerows, they’re too aggressive for this location. 🙁

    lol luckily they are easy to pull when they’re small. I cleared a snarl in my easement and planned to fill it with native stuff and any scratching in the dirt yields this same effect.
