Cheatgrass, Bromus tectorum

Potted knapweed, Centaurea biebersteinii

Brown knapweed, Centaurea jacea

Tumble knapweed, Centaurea diffusa

Canada thistle, Cirsium arvense

Scot's broom, Cytisus scoparius

Herb Robert, Geranium robertianum

English ivy, Hedera helix

Orange hawkweed, Hieracium aurantiacum

Common St. John's-wort, Hypericum perforatum

In general, the aggregate product should have been mined from an intact layer, processed, and stored since the end of the previous seed-dispersal season. Olympic National Park botanist considers the end of the seed-dispersal season to be November 1st. Ideally, material for delivery to the park is fresh quarried and processed without stockpiling for more than a few weeks. In addition, the areas surrounding the mining, processing, and stockpiling locations need to be free of the above species for

100 feet in all directions. The Olympic National Park botanists do exercise judgment when inspecting. For example, if some limited presence of the above species are found, they may be acceptable if the plants observed show no evidence of flowers or fruits.
