Did you know it is not illegal for garden centres to sell invasive plants? As spring gardening begins, CSISS is calling upon gardeners to be vigilant about the seed packs, plants, and wildflower seed mixes they purchase or share. It is currently not illegal to import, purchase, or sell invasive plants in British Columbia. CSISS is working to collaborate with garden centers and plant nurseries across the region to ensure they are not providing invasive species for sale. Here are a few common culprits to keep an eye out for! If you see these seeds or plants being sold, let the garden centre and your friends know, and do not purchase!
Have you seen any of these species in the wild recently? It is likely they escaped from gardens or were planted/dumped there.
