community is to preserve moisture and
it makes a lush, solid, inviting carpet
on the cool floors of a redwood
forest. Also, they act like dripping
umbrellas and covers hidden spots
where tree frogs hide. It’s edible too.

Cape Ivy
1) Scientific name: Delairea odorata
2) Its an invasive species
• What makes it a "BAD" plant?
• Cape ivy grows rapidly, and takes root wherever a leaf node touches
the ground.
• Tiny portions of stem can survive for long periods before resprouting.
• Plants can live an extended period without light or water.
• The dense vines overtop and smother out native shrubs, tree
seedlings, and associated herbaceous plants.
• Cape ivy is a threat to the integrity of coastal scrub and riparian
vegetation.

Western Sword Fern
Polystichum munitum
This long type of grass was eaten by Native
Americans during the spring when they had
no food to eat. They would usually be found
on the ground in rather moist forests.
Western Sword Ferns are have an extremely
rough texture and are able to withstand dry
weather if there is much water and little
sunlight. Cool weather is preferred by this
plant for best growing activities.

Fringe cups
-(Tellima Grandiflora) Native
• This plant needs a moist,
partially shady to totally shady
spot to thrive. The leaves may
grow as large as a fist when it
is older and in the perfect spot.
Tellima or fringe cup makes an
attractive ground cover and will
slowly extend itself into other
areas of your garden if you let
the flowers go to seed. It is not
invasive though and can be
easily weeded out if you don’t
want it moving into a particular
spot in your garden.

Star Flower
Trientalis borealis
• It is a forb and is native to
Northern United States
• Bee-pollinated white flowers
found in small clusters and
shoot development Selfpollination is possible but
rarely results in fruiting.
• Possibly is wind dispersed but
falls near parent plant and
does not germinate in the cold.
• The consumption of Trientalis
borelais greatly reduces the
occurrence of infection, which
develops in autumn and could
potentially select for higher
disease resistance
