<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Does anyone know much about the distribution of Japanese dodder? When in NJ a few years back, with a field biologist from the NYNJ Trail Conference, she indicated the Cuscuta we were seeing in a wetland area was invasive.
I don't see this very often but I did just spot it in Harriman State Park in NY this past week. Wishing I had taken a closer look. </p>
