  8. Welcome! I've attached the Japanese knotweed Best Control Practices PDF that may offer some assistance. Out of curiosity, where are you located? JapaneseKnotweedBCP.pdf
  9. Pretty sure this is Pokeweed but just wanted to get a second opinion.
  10. Hi all, I received an e-mail from someone in the Kalamazoo area today regarding some glass like plants growing at their church along the river bank in the rocks. Wondering if anyone can tell what this could be and whether or not it is / can become a problem. She said the roots are like a fat rubber band. Update: It started growing on the north side of one building and has now jumped over to another area, probably 50-75 yards away. She keeps trying to kill it with Spectracide and some weed killer the church has but "it won’t quit!"

  13. This was an e-mail received but I am not quite sure what plant I am looking at here...
  14. That is what I was leaning towards but I wasn't 100% sure... I know we have a few white mulberry trees (boo ) in our field but I was really surprised to see it growing here.
  15. Hi all, wondering if you could help me out. This, I am assuming tree, popped up next to our air conditioner a few weeks ago and it has been growing like crazy. I swear its grown 2 feet in a week...Anyone have any idea what it could be?
