The Department has many natural areas of parkland
and intends to maintain and sustain its ecological
character. The name "Dirty Dozen"
was given to the twelve plants that pose problems
and prevent the establishment of native flora
due to their high reproductive rate and accelerated
growth. Exotic plants, as well as native vegetation,
may be considered a weed if it adversely affects
the sustainability of a natural area and/or
encroaches into developed landscapes.
These booklets were created to assist Department
of Recreation and Parks staff and volunteers
in the proper identification of problematic
weeds specific to the following locations.
