Hi Jil,

 Hi Jil,

 I have a student who is working on invasive plants in wildflower seed
 mixes. This is an MS project that grew out of a senior thesis she did with
 me a few years ago.

 Once we have determined what species are in the mix she is determining if
 the species is considered invasive by credible sources. She has found some
 on WeedsUS. We would like to verify that they are on NPS land or at least
 that they are considered to actually be out there and potentially causing
 problems.

 The species in question are:

 Centaurea cyanus
 Scabiosa atropurpurea
 Digitalis purpurea
 Lathyrus latifolius
 Oenothera glazioviana (lamarckiana)

 I have some opinions and observations about 3 of those species, but we are
 hoping for something more documented than my opinions.

 Thanks for your input.

 Best wishes,

 Sarah Reichard
