We're joining Friends of Roberts Bird Sanctuary at William Berry Woods to pull Creeping Bellflower (Campanula rapunculoides), a lovely flower but invasive species. Unfortunately, this species has a strong presence in the woods, especially in the southwest quadrant along Richfield Road, the edge of the turf area and the sidewalk. The plant's tubers spread and crowd out the native plant community that volunteers work hard to preserve and protect in these woods. Until a more permanent solution can be implemented, we work to remove flowers before they go to seed.
