Misunderstood Plants
Series
Language about "invasive" plants sets a dangerous precedent for ourselves, our children and the planet, blaming the plants and earth for trying to heal and course-correct
from our poor decisions.
The Misunderstood Plants commonly referred to as “invasives” (aka outsider, alien, intruder, interloper, enemy, demon, evil) are misunderstood, underrated, undervalued and demonized.
If the plants could speak our language they would
tell us that they identify as:
Tenacious, Vigorous, Protective, Determined, Powerful, Persistent, Eager, Generous, Friendly, Helpful, and
Big-Hearted
Join Woad, Mrs. Knotweed, The Three Artemisias, Kudzu, Dandelion and Little Barberry on their adventures with their friends as they make their way through adversity with appreciation, understanding and love.
