Notes
Park Species Detail: NARM, 1987-disturbed areas. Most likely not within park boundaries in 1860; now the dominant tree along the river in several locations. Our inventory suggests removal of the the Paulownia could generate a substantial financial return to the Park. There are areas where Paulownia adds considerable beauty to the Park when in flower and removal would likely be met with visitor dissatisfaction./Anderson & King, 1965: May 1, General./, Park Species Data Source: North American Resources Management, Inc (Croy), 1987-Entire Park; Anderson and King, 1965-Entire Park-Entire Park; Rouse, 1998-Entire Park;Metzger, 2004: Potoma Wayside./
