Flyer has a park like background with four pictures in the middle. Pictures are a yellow lesser celandine plant, a patch of lesser celenadine next to a shoe, a large infestation and a QR code. Lesser celandine (Ficaria verna), also known as fig buttercup, is a perennial plant in the buttercup family. Native to Europe and Asia, it is considered an invasive "spring ephemeral" in North America. This plant has been listed on Michigan's invasive species watch list and has been found in southern Michigan. We will discuss lesser celandine impacts to our natural areas, identification tips, management options and challenges, and steps people can take to prevent its spread to new areas.
