Spring’s putting on a show, but not every bloom is your friend.

These bright yellow “buttercups” may look delicate, but fig buttercup (Ficaria verna ) spreads fast, crowds out native plants, and takes over before you know it.

In this video, Zeb breaks down:
• why they spread so aggressively
• how they outcompete everything around them
• and the most effective way to actually get rid of them (hint: you have to dig deep)

Catch them early, or they’ll come back stronger next year. 🌱
