Wildflower enthusiasts met on Saturday, April 27 at Clary Gardens to take a wildflower walk through the grounds with Tammi Rogers from the OSU Extension Office. During the hike, not only did participants view the wildflowers that are coming into bloom, but collected an invasive species known as garlic mustard. If left to grow, garlic mustard sends out chemicals from their roots that inhibits the growth of other plants and can quickly take over. “The purpose of the walk was to primarily get people to come out to Clary’s and see the native wildflowers we have and teach them about the invasive species that are out there,” said Rogers.
