Goutweed is a vigorous, invasive perennial that spreads quickly by underground stems and can take over a garden and crowd out plants.
A gardening friend told me that I have a weed called goutweed in my garden. Now that I have looked closer at the beds, it is spreading throughout my shaded garden and even into my lawn and other sunnier beds. What’s the best way to get rid of this weed?Goutweed is a vigorous, invasive perennial that spreads quickly by underground stems called rhizomes and can take over a garden and crowd out garden plants, as well as native plants in natural areas.
Even a small piece of rhizome can re-sprout into a new plant, so be sure to remove as much of the root system as possible and dispose of it by burning or bagging and putting it in the trash. It is best to avoid putting the plants in your compost pile. Be careful to clean up all rhizomes, which can root again and sprout new plants if left lying on the soil. Continue to monitor the area and be persistent in pulling plants that will continue to grow again over a period of years.

Tiny bats provide 'glimmer of hope' against a fungus that threatened entire speciesScientists studying bat species that have been hit hard by the fungus that causes white nose syndrome say there is a glimmer of good news against the disease that has killed millions of bats across North America. The Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife says the population of New England's largest bat colony shows signs of more bats being able to tolerate the disease. There are also indications they may be passing resistant traits on to their young. White nose syndrome is caused by an invasive fungus first found in an upstate New York cave in 2006. It causes bats to wake up from winter hibernation and die of exposure or starvation.
