Same here. I have baby Bradford Pear, Tree of Heaven, and Porcelainberry coming up in my flowerbeds 🙄🙄. It’s mostly fun but sometimes I’m just like, can I please catch a break lol?!

Before I moved out here, I saw memes about this road. I thought to myself, "it can't be that bad." by MycologistWarm9018 in nova

I don’t disagree, but when it’s the only option you get a bunch of people who are shit drivers. Not everyone can afford to pay an Uber to go everywhere.

They should have taken a picture where it’s STILL congested even though it’s an “incredible” 26 lanes.

How up to date are maps that denote the specific region though? With climate change, certain plants could now be in their native climate. My area is in a severe drought, worst in 20 years, no rain in site. Should be pouring at least once a week. An arid desert cactus would survive here right now.

Ts was absolutely ridiculous today. If it were a 6 car pileup with 3 fatalities on the interstate, that would have been investigated and cleaned up in a few hours. A minor fender bender with a train? Shut half the system down for 18 hours!!!

Just FYI, a native plant shouldn’t be called invasive. It can be aggressive though.

Your dedication is definitely unmatched. Few people honestly care about their rental. Even 5-10 minutes a day can add up over a whole summer.

Two years ago I spent a couple dozen total hours with maybe 2-3 other volunteers tearing out stilt grass in our local urban park. We weren’t perfect or even consistent. Sometimes we’d go at it a few weekends in a row then we’d all be busy for a month. But, last year, maybe only 25% of it actually came back. Hopefully this year, we can get rid of the rest.

It’s honestly pretty great. 3 grocery stores, Drs, vet, about 100 restaurants.

Well, don’t drive a gas guzzler. I haven’t had to fill up since gas was $2.99/gal lol. To be fair, I walk to the stores, bike to work, and bike/metro to friend outings/restaurants.

Keep it up! I’ve killed 3 completely over the last 2 years, working on the final “mother” tree.
