Title: Good source for invasive species I.D.?
Post by: Piston on May 09, 2011, 07:50:10 AM
I know there are some invasive species on my land in NH because the county forester pointed them out to me when he visited, however it has been a while since I've been up there and I don't remember which ones he said to remove.

Is there a good website with pictures of invasive species in New England that I can refer to?  I figure I'll walk around the area he told me there was something in, and try to I.D. everything there, eventually I'll find it, or I could just wait a few years until there is nothing left BUT the invasive species, then I'll KNOW!  :D
