The philosophy for this online source is to provide the home gardener with OSU publications, research, and news items that are related to the home orchard and garden.
When deciding upon which plants will be used in your garden or landscaping project it’s important to avoid selecting species that are considered invasive. This publication provides several examples of invasive plants for our area, specifically for zones 5 and 6 of the United States Department of Agriculture’s “hardiness zones” chart.
