Purple Loosestrife


I have only seen this non-native, invasive plant a few times. A pity that it is an unwanted plant, as it is a beautiful colour. In Alberta, Purple Loosestrife is the only species of Loosestrife found - there are over 500 species of Loosestrife worldwide. It spreads rapidly and prevents native wetland species from growing. Throughout most of North America, it is designated as a noxious weed. Photographed at Pearce Estate on 9 September 2007.
