Bush honeysuckle and garlic mustard have established extensively in Wheaton's creek corridor and forest preserve woodland understory, and multiflora rose and Japanese barberry are established in suburban woodland edges. The DuPage County Forest Preserve District's extensive Wheaton-area preserves create conservation context for clearing near these protected areas.
