Thanks for doing this, Kitty.  I didn't have time last night to research it, 
but was going to do it this morning.  Garlic mustard is truly the most 
noxious weed I know of, and I can remember when it first appeared in these 
parts about 30 years ago.  It was something of a curiosity then, and some 
people declared it was good to eat.  There are a few in every crowd. I try to 
pull it up every time I see even a small plant, but somehow it always stays 
ahead of me.  I keep telling myself that if I get it early before it goes to 
seed, it won't be there next year - ha!  Last year I pulled literally bushels 
of it, but I'm sure there will be just as much this year.  Shady hillsides, 
(which describes most of my property) seem to be its favorite sites.  Auralie
