The native plant was:

native jewelweed

Every year, hundreds of volunteers dedicate thousands of hours of their time to remove invasive non-native plants like these throughout Rock Creek Park. Want to learn more about invasive plants in our area? Try this guide.

It’s inspiring to see how people-powered restoration of our green spaces makes our local environment healthier by allowing native plants to regenerate. 

Will you help us make Rock Creek Park an urban oasis for ALL to enjoy with your gift to the Rock Creek Fund Spring Drive?

Thank you for being a FORCE for Rock Creek– and for being a part of this wonderful community.

Best,

Kelsey Pramik, Senior Development and Communications Manager
