WIGL Summit 4 Integrated Strategies for Woody Invasive Control
"Governor Milliken" gave Black Locust seed plugs to school kids all across the state in 1970's. Maybe in '72. Of about 30 kids at the classes at my school who got one, only mine made it to become a tree. It lived for about 30 years before a storm killed it. The tree was growing on a 2 acre property and I (sadly) have no children from it. Now they're an invasive. 🤷♀️
Cutie 😘
I ordered red lantham raspberries and this is what grew. I’m in Washington state. Very annoying.
Nice to find a video with real information and not jokester nonsense!
Black Locust have been used in my family for fence posts for a hundred years or more.
I have one in my yard. I live in northwest indiana
I'm pretty sure I just found one sprout up in my garden in Wisconsin. What should I do with it?
Seedlings can usually be removed manually, though it's good to make sure it's not a sucker from a nearby mature tree. If it has reached the stage of being a small tree, with a trunk diameter of less than 6", a basal bark herbicide application is likely the most effective approach. If you need more information I recommend visiting woodyinvasives.org/woody-invasive-species/black-locust/
The Story sound like some human story in North America
I use goats and sheep. Katadhins do feed on stilt grass.
Thanks for sharing this information
Why isnt this tree harnessed to deal with rainforest loss? Its wonderful to start forests, then dies out when the forest gets going. How come no one really talks about the greatest uses of this tree. The lumber is highly coveted. The flowers are highly coveted. It can start forests. The wood glows in black light. It just needs planted in the right conditions and for the right reasons.
I might have one by garage door so I will need to remove its a baby too don't know if I have more.
I'm in jersey.
If you need help with ID or removal advice, visit woodyinvasives.org/woody-invasive-species/porcelain-berry/
I hate this plant lol. I don't say that much, but the first year I saw it growing up into the elm tree we had and thought, "Wow, look at those colored berries. How cool!" The next year it took the elm tree down. The year after that, they had completely taken over the entire woodline in my back yard. Luckily my brother came by with his skidsteer and made short work of them, but as hardy as they are, taking it upon themselves to grow and breaking at the root before you can pull them out of the ground... I fear it's not the last I've seen of them yet. Honeysuckle abound here too. But at least it can be a fun task chopping then down every year. I bruised my ribs this year while pulling on porcelainberry vines. Still recovering lol.
I live in San Antonio, and the most common elm throughout Texas is something called cedar elm. The cedar elm has the smallest leaves of any elm, are single toothed, and are a native tree of Texas, but I don't see many of them outside of the state. The Siberian and the Chinese elm leaves look very similar to the cedar elm when they are young, but cedar elm leaves turn very rough. Personally, I am very fond of the cedar elm, and while the Siberian elm is a relatively pretty tree, I have no interest in planting them or Chinese elm because I almost always stick to native species. If you're in Texas, plant cedar elm!
Nice video ,good job explaining the Siberian Elm! Here in Western Pa in the woods there are a lot of Elm .American Elm is the most dominant Elm I find here. I am in the woods cutting downed trees most of the year and I find some trees that I know are Elm, but they have some very different characteristics .Sometimes the trees have big branches that the wood is twisty and gnarly on part of the tree and other parts more traditional like American Elm! I have been told there are some strange mixtures of elm from the attempts to grow more disease resistance trees. The most prominent characteristic I use to identify American Elm is the Obvious Rays in the grain of the cut firewood rounds . I call it faux Oak because I has confused me many times until I see the wavy growth rings and obvious Rays.
I have a fruiting white mulberry tree in my yard based on the leaf identification, it's growing in a cluster of trees and is almost in full shade under a huge maple tree. This is SC so it's always 1000 degrees in the shade too so that might be why it's doing so well.
I don’t understand word “invasive “? That means a tree hard to kill? Or bad tree. Is there any bad tree? Any tree can damage building if you plant it in wrong places. So why instead of labeling a tree “invasive” just inform people not to plant it in right place.
I don't like referring to plants as bad. All plants have a role in the ecosystem they evolved in. The definition of an invasive species is a species that is not native, AND causes environmental or economic harm (or harms human health), when introduced outside its native range. This harm often stems from a lack of predators or other limitations to their growth and spread outside its native range.
It grows here in Harper’s Ferry. Tim Pool talks about it all the time on his channel, he says it highly invasive. Definitely agree.
Is he in Harpers Ferry? I know he’s in WV.
Are the flowers fragrant? Can it grow in the Tropics?
I have a question In my area there are some female mulberry trees that produce a lot of fruit and that fruit has perfectly formed and fertile seeds inside, in fact I have seen those seeds grow but there is not a single male tree for miles away, and I don't understand how they get pollinated. How is it possible for them to produce complete and fertile seeds? thank you
That is interesting! @@midwestinvasiveplantnetwor7029
if the devil was a tree it would be a siberian elm.
I'd put my vote in for it being one of those exploding dynamite trees.
We are parsing and consuming the planet .
Can be seen from space
Dear GENEVA: Thankyou for this input here! This my 80th year on the planet. One take away from your talk I have is is that tho we humans tend to think of the word "invasive" as meaning something negatively invading from another country or other continents. Truly, ecosystems, as it were, are pre-human natural territorial spaces unto and within themselves shaped by time, gravity, topography, water and the wind. - very much unlike counties, countries, boundries that we have drawn.. Good topic, I say, but a hard one! Ecosystems exist long before and irrespective all the lines we humans have drawn.
This species is very aggressive in open fields but relatively well behaved in woodlands where it has to compete. However grows faster than other "natives". In certain areas it should be eliminated other areas always have more pressing woodies to address. Unless a prairie or doing full comprehensive invasive removal, which is rare this species is not as worrisome as many others.
I also am from Long Island NY. I live on a big piece of property and this stuff is everywhere! It grows super fast and kills the other plants it covers. It does however help tame down some of the wild rose plants that have also grown huge and out of control.
Thank you for the educational video. Subscribed.
horrible tree. impossible to destroy. cutting it makes it send out 1000's of suckers. only an idiot would plant this tree
These are everywhere where I live, I don’t think control is possible
The hybridization with native aspen is a bit unsettling. Will it also hybridize with eastern cottonwood?
It most readily hybridizes with European aspen, quaking aspen, and bigtooth aspen. Hybridization between while poplar and eastern cottonwood is very unlikely to happen spontaneously in the wild. While some crosses have been done through breeding programs, the trees have not been very successful.
Clar- Nice overview! Out West, in Nevada, Siberian Elms are great- they are fast growing, and very drought resistant..Siberian Elms need good tree care.
White mulberry fruit and red mulberry fruit is also good maybe better is good but hybrid mulberries like illinious everbearing mulberry, silk hope mulberry they can be invasive but they aren’t as invansive as true white mulberries the fruit quality is superior then white and red mulberries and they grow longer fruits usually and there is even less invansive form called Gerardi dwarf that grows big long edible sweet fruit. There is also morus nigra a seperate species that is good in warm climates and is called the king of mulberries because it has the best fruit is best but the plants harder to grow. Also morus latifolia fruit is good to of kokuso Korean mulberry. Some white mulberries grow good fruit like Russian mulberry if you keep it pruned you should be fine. Also you can Graft white mulberry roots to superior hybrid or nigra type mulberries.
I live in Huntington, WV which is in the tri-state area of Ohio, WV, and Kentucky and on the Ohio River. I found it in my yard behind a solid wooden fence. I thought it was so beautiful. We did get rid of it, sadly, but it was trying to take over. It was the prettiest vine I’ve ever seen. If I lived in the country I might have just let it go. 🌷
Work on your speaking tone, lady! So nasal., make an effort.
Thank you for this video. I believe you are spot on. I am still debating whether or not to cut it down or keep it. I agree it's invasive, but so are varieties of Cottonwood and Eucalyptus . It all depends on the location and circumstance.
Location and circumstance definitely factor into plant behavior, however while cottonwood can be aggressive, it is native our region, so is not considered an invasive plant. One of the concerning things about Siberian elm, is not just that it's non-native and spreads rapidly, but it's potential to hybridize with native slippery elm, creates a conservation concern.
I think I have a Siberian Elm. But it does sucker from the roots. Maybe it is a hybrid. It is very large and beautiful. We live in a beautiful forested area of middle Georgia. The tree is in our open pasture. It is the only one of its kind I can find on our property or surrounding woods. I have been looking for American and Slippery Elm, but I haven't found any yet.
Thanks for this informative video. I have some black swallo wort in my yard which I have hand pulled over the years. It's there but somewhat manageable. I put it in trash because I heard that none of their parts (leaves, stems, roots, seeds ) should be composted since they can come back . I was wondering if that's really true because doesn't compost break down everything to the point that it's not that items anymore? Would really appreciate if someone can shed some light on this. New gardener 😊
Good question. The main concern for black swallow-wort spread is via seed, but root crowns can regenerate even if they are damaged and so the guidance is that this plant should not be composted (mnfi.anr.msu.edu/invasive-species/Swallow-wortBCP.pdf). While technically composting can break down all plant material, it takes 30 days of exposure to temperatures of 145 degrees or more to kill seeds from tougher weed species (wssa.net/) in a properly designed and managed compost system and that can be very difficult to achieve with backyard composting. It is safer to double bag and dispose of swallow-wort in your regular trash.
@@midwestinvasiveplantnetwor7029 thanks for the reply. The first link didn't open for me. If it's the seeds and the roots that are the biggest concerns, is it then ok to compost the leaves and stems because often that's what ends up in the hands with my mediocre efforts. I plan on going in with tools but can't help pulling them out anytime I see them.
@@monalisahota That page was slow to load for me too. Try using this link www.misin.msu.edu/facts/detail/?project=&id=36&cname=Black+swallow-wort. If you scroll to the bottom, you should be able to open the best control practices for swallow-wort document. I still wouldn't recommend composting this plant, in case of accidental inclusion of seed or root fragments, but you are correct that the stems and leaves themselves cannot generate a new plant.
Very informative, Thank you!
I was really happy to get fruit from my mulberry tree in my backyard (Northwest Indiana) and am now sad I need to chop it down. I think it's white mulberry due to the leaves being so shiny (3 lobe). It does look very weedy. It's still hard for me to tell the difference though.
I know what you mean, I enjoy the fruit too, but removal does help protect our native red mulberry populations. If the tree is in your yard, especially in a sunny spot, and the leaves are shiny it's very likely to be white mulberry. Red mulberry leaves are dull on the top surface and hairy on the entire bottom. Red mulberry requires higher quality habitat with rich, moist soil and partial shade, while white mulberry will grow in poor soils and prefers full sun.
I'm in northwest Indiana too, you still have your tree?
Don’t chop it down it has a lot of medicinal uses
How do i get rid of tree-of-heaven
Tree of heaven is a tough invasive to manage due to its extensive suckering when top cut or ineffectively treated. The Woody Invasives of the Great Lakes Collaborative website (woodyinvasives.org/woody-invasive-species/tree-of-heaven/#1571683267259-c65fd76c-7490fa11-61a14714-3122ef93-98d1ba23-e222) has good information on managing this tree. For more specific guidance on chemical application, refer to the MIPN control database (www.mipn.org/control/). In my personal experience hack and squirt is more effective than cut stump methods, but both can be effective if timed and executed correctly.
@@midwestinvasiveplantnetwor7029 i moved to Arkansas after a 20 fight, in Wisconsin, with European buckthorn and had NEVER heard of this tree. I bought a house and have been trying to get rid of it. It destroys everything I put in. I pull, I cut and spray, I mow. I had the really huge old ones taken down and their suckers push up through my crawl space, my garden, my EVERYTHING! I don't want to be defeated by this dang tree. I get annoyed because down here they plant so many invasive species including Mimosa, honeysuckle,ivy and anything else including invasive grasses. Their DNR have been know help. ✌🏽 🙏🏽
The underside of the norway maple has a sheen to it, like satin. Sugar maple leaf's underside is different
Hello, you mentioned male and female white mulberry. How do you tell the difference between the two ?
The easiest differentiation is whether the tree produces fruit. Only female trees produce fruit.
Thank you!
Thanks for the info even though I think it broke me... I've been trying to figure out for weeks what the enormous untamed shrub/tree *juuuust* along our property line that's been driving me crazy with all the random suckers was. I think it's technically a California Privet (or an Arum?? idk), but either way, this was not the answer I was hoping for. I even noticed that where the branches touch the ground it will start growing roots! I hate this shrub so much!! It's just impossible to manage and it keeps growing through the lilacs! I wish I could get rid of it for good, but while our yard is overrun with these babies, the main shrub's roots are technically just inside my neighbor's property line so I'm powerless 😭
I'm so sorry to hear you're struggling with this plant. It sounds like you have some limitations on management, but for the ones that pop up in your yard, or if you and your neighbor do decide to work on managing the parent plant, know that there is management information available at woodyinvasives.org/woody-invasive-species/border-privet/#1571683267259-c65fd76c-74902c49-11a4
It’s very unreported we’re I live because no one cares for their garden we’re I’m at on Long Island, the past 2 yrs it’s popped up literally everywhere in my yard and gardens and I’m having a really awful time trying rid of it. It is now strangling my sprinklers 😭 the roots are unbelievable and systemic weed killer didn’t help at all
Some studies have shown that chemical treatment in the fall may be more effective. Woodyinvasives.org has more information. Also, we are hoping to hold a webinar at the end of the year specifically on porcelain berry. Join the MIPN listserv (mipn.org) to stay up to date on what we'll have to offer on this topic this year.
Is there a way to kill it so the root dies for certain? Instead of trying to pull it out I which case I may not get the entire root?
If you want to pursue chemical control rather than manual, foliar, cut stump, basal bark, and application of herbicide to a girdle are effective on this species. Foliar applications should only be conducted when plants are fully leafed out and are likely restricted to sites with few desirable plants. Basal bark treatment can be used on trees of intermediate size (<6” in diameter at breast height) during most times of the year, avoiding early spring. For large trees, cut stump treatment or application of herbicide to a girdle are most effective. Girdle treatment should be done in late spring to mid-summer while cut stump can be during most of the year, avoiding early spring. This information as well as details on mechanical management are available at the Woody Invasives of the Great Lakes website woodyinvasives.org/woody-invasive-species/siberian-elm/#1571683267259-c65fd76c-7490fa11-61a14714-3122ef93-98d11c0d-ecf6
Annoying voice. Reminds me of Bobcat Goldwick.
I believe this is what we have on our property. I have read elsewhere that they do sprout from the roots and ours definitely do. It’s a constant battle. Perhaps we have a slightly different hybrid. We are in Arizona for reference.
A nitrogen fixer that takes advantage of nitrogen poor soils - sounds like a problem (solved) to me!
The issue is that in the Great Lakes region, these trees alter nutrient cycling within the plant community to the detriment of native species that are adapted to low nitrogen conditions. The result can be monocultures and a reduction in biodiversity.
I planted on of these a few years ago wish I didn’t
Did it up!
I'm not experienced with identifying vines, but I just moved into a new property that has this one vine that looks like grape vine and I'm trying to identify it before deciding what to do with it. I'm using Google Lense to great effect elsewhere, but it's split on this vine as much as I am. Sometimes it says "pepper vine" and sometimes "grape vine" with various specific species each time I grab a snapshot. But now after searching for help I found your video and I'm wondering if it's actually a Porcelain Vine. So I'm really glad I found your video, but I'm still confused about my vine in particular. Its bark does peel so much that it's much older section looked downright dry and dead when we moved here in January, but rapid new growth has started. This makes me lean Grape, yet it's younger sections have the white pores you show in your video. If the pores were a clue, the youngest green growth does not have the little hairs which once again suggests it's not likely Porcelain. Right now in May it's growing these clusters of tiny balls that look like early flower buds, but could just be more leaves, and they match the cluster design of the flowers you show here for Porcelain Berry flowers. Speaking of the leaves, they're no help at all. They look exactly like Grape, Pepper, and Porcelain had a conference and decided on a uniform. Mostly one lobe with just the faintest suggestion of 2 more on the sides, and generally heart shaped. ((Edit: actually one leaf in particular is huge. Roughly 5 inches wide and 7 inches long if not maybe a bit larger. It's up high so it's hard to measure. Many others are 4 inches wide. I heard in another video that size matters with identifying Grape being on the large side, so I figured I should come back and include this info.)) So I guess I'm just wondering if you could help me identify the vine. Is the peeling a dead giveaway for Grape, or is there a chance it's a less appetizing Porcelain or even poisonous Pepper Vine? I have young kids, so I'd want to eradicate Pepper Vine fore it bears fruit, but if it's Grape I'd want to take clippings and propagate it into more of a controlled garden growth for our enjoyment. Any help would be highly appreciated!
