It's back and looking healthy
I feel like I spend a lot of time talking about Garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) but that is because it is one of the invasive plants that I really think we can get a handle on! This plant is a biennial, so as long as you keep it from setting seed you can win the Garlic mustard battle. I haven't seen any of our wonderful spring ephemerals popping up yet, but I have seen some Garlic Mustard looking green and healthy. So as long as you can CORRECTLY identify it, now is the time to start removing it. Remember that you should create as minimal soil disturbance as possible when pulling any plants!!
