Yes. Prickly Pear cactus is native to the Northeast and Northern Midwest.

Oh man, thanks for the head's up! I looked up my county and it lists "Moth Mullein" not Common Mullein. Can you identify? It also says 0 occurances in my county.

I already scattered seeds onto some bare ground, but I can deal with it if necessary. My biggest issues that I fight are false chamomile and dandelions. Just found some thistle and cut that down, and I have oxeye daisies and red clover that I'm not controlling.Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.

All mullein (Verbascum thapsus) is introduced to NA. Not a noxious weed in most regions per se, but in marginal arid ecosystems, it is a competitor to native plants.
It’s a prolific seeder and banked seeds can remain viable for a century. So once it goes to seed it is hard to completely eradicate from a site. It doesn’t spread far on its own, so if you find an isolated patch, it was brought there by humans or their animals.

In Colorado Moth mullein (Verbascum blattaria) is on the b list with no occurrences in Lake County while Common mullein (Verbascum thapsus) is on the c list with no controls. I guess I won't sweat it til I learn something specifically different.
Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.

Mmmm, saltimbocca. I haven't made that in a long time. I also have purple sage going but it's new, this plant is a monster. I need some more ideas for how to use it.

I'm telling you - fried sage leaves are delicious and you can use up a SHITLOAD.
ETA: I'm talking "crisp-fried" not deep-fried. I've never tried deep-fried sage leaves, but I'd wager they're even better than the crisp-fried.

Waddaya know about wineberries? The thicket at the top of my driveway turned out to be an impenetrable thorny tangle of wineberries and they're going crazy. I tried a few, they're really sweet. They're kinda sticky from all the pectins.
