Hi Randy & All,                Nov 7, 2010
    Sorry for the delay in responding but my time is stretched thin these days.

    Not to be flippant, but why should one take problems that are not serious seriously when there is a multitude of real problems begging for attention ?

Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville

  Only plants that cause "serious" problems are worthy of our concern?


  Native plants overwhelming other native plants - that's fair competition in my mind.

    Executive summary: 
        I can not think of one non-native plant that has caused a serious problem in Eastern Canada. Some, for a few years, may locally overwhelm native plants. But sometimes native plants overwhelm other native plants.
