Invasive Exotics in Your Landscape

From CHCA board member Suzan Rowe: Did you know that many commonly-used landscape plants are invasive species? An exotic plant is one that is planted outside its natural habitat. While many of these plants are not a problem, some become invasive due to lack of the natural enemies that would otherwise keep them in check. These plants reproduce quickly, displace many of the other species in their domain, and are difficult to eradicate.

As the season changes, there are new flowers. Same birds maybe but new views.

SPC Trail Native Garden spring planting completed

On Wednesday about ten volunteers under the leadership of local resident and parks bond/greenspace manager Dave Butler managed to plant all the native azaleas, ferns, oak leaf hydrangeas, wild ginger (heartleaf), black cohosh, woodland poppy, creeping rockfoil, et al that Dave could wrangle for us from the county. The location is on the upslope side of the South Peachtree Creek Trail boardwalk just beyond the steel bridge. We hope to install signs to identify the area and the plants. We also hope to add more plants next fall and spring.
