With the spring season now in full swing in Ontario, a striking blue plant is appearing in gardens, lawns, and even wooded areas, and while it may look beautiful, the early spring flower is an invasive species that can be toxic to pets and humans if consumed.Originally native to Russia, Siberian Squill (or Scilla) was first introduced to North America as an ornamental plant. Its vibrant blue-violet flowers and ability to thrive in various conditions made it a favourite among gardeners; however, its ability to spread rapidly negatively impacts other local native plant species.The plant's flowers first appear slightly bell-shaped, and these nodding flowers open to be about one inch wide. Flowers can be identified by their six blue petals with a darker stripe down the middle of each petal, and basal leaves that are grass-like and hairless.
