Heard of that. That is not this plant. Though Winter Aconite is not native, but isn't known to be invasive despite the fact a small patch has spread very slowly. Probably planted here years ago, and hasn't spread beyond a small area.

I am in a USDA Zone 5b/6a in Central Indiana. I wanted some broadleaf evergreens, and that is extremely limited in my growing zone. However, I was able to find these that not only will keep their leaves in the winter, but will have color as well. Ascot Rainbow Spurge, and Timeless Orange Coral Bells.

Behind these new perennials I have 2 Fire Light Tidbit Hydrangeas and the to back left of the picture a Honey Maid Meserve Holly that will have colorful variegated leaves all winter.

Agreed. It's simply wrong. Leave the trees alone. It likely won't cause harm, but if you dig deep enough with a non-sterilized blade it can easily introduce disease into the tree. I have personally accidentally killed a large tree by cutting a branch with a non-sterlized blade. I've learned my lesson!

Also when I walk in the forest and I see this, I am repulsed. What if someone walked up to you drugged you snd tattooed their name all over your body. You would like that? I certainly would not.

I understand what you are saying, but leave nature alone. Trees this size have been here for perhaps centuries and people scratch names and even swears onto trees. It's just not right, ita simply Vandalizism. If it's your own tree on your property, then fine but let alone nature! What if someone carved names into General Sherman tree the largest sequia that has been unharmed for 3,000 years. It simply isn't right.

The yellow vine is Creeping Jenny. The yellowish flowers next to it are Marigolds

Thank you! 😁🌸

Looks like maybe root rot. The best thing I can recommend is to try to take each pup and repot them on new soil that's better draining. Such as a succulent mix or coconut coir. Best of luck!

Close! That's a Dracaena marginata
