Help us survey Virginia garden centers for invasive plants.
It’s here!
Blue Ridge PRISM and the Virginia Invasive Plant Coalition are recruiting volunteers to help with the first statewide survey of invasive plants* for sale at retail garden centers.
Have you seen invasive plants for sale at your local garden center? Let us know by filling out the survey form. The survey form works on your mobile phone, and you can upload photos, too!
“49 of the 103 invasive plants listed on the Virginia DCR Invasive Plant Species List are still sold in nurseries or available online across the state.”
