Comment Period | Ended on 12/8/2023 |
I agree with all the plants being suggested to be added to the noxious weed list. English ivy and euonymus fortunei are smothering the trees in the natural areas in Henrico. Japanese and Amur honeysuckle along with privet have taken over my woods and prevented anything else from growing ( except for English ivy). I’m spending years eradicating these from my woods. The county property adjacent to me is full of the same and includes bamboo. The bamboo is coming up into people’s yards and used to come up through my driveway and yard until I spent $12,000 getting it bulldozed. It remains on the county property and in the neighbors’ yards. English ivy is rampant. Multiflora rose and japanese knotweed should be banned as well.
