More Harbingers of Spring
We know spring is just around the corner when we spot these two spring plants and flowers, both of which were spotted by our staff this week!

If you’ve noticed clusters of sticky, spotted insects on your trees, patio furniture, or garden plants, there’s a good chance you’re dealing with the Spotted Lanternfly in Rockville. This invasive pest has officially made its way to our area, and it’s putting serious stress on local landscapes, shade trees, and even backyard veggie gardens. The good news?
