Cannabis Plants Found and Removed from Wisconsin Capitol Garden

Officials uncertain if the plants were marijuana or hemp; investigation into intentional planting underway.

Workers discovered and removed dozens of cannabis plants from a tulip garden at the Wisconsin State Capitol.
Experts could not definitively identify the plants as marijuana or hemp without further testing.
The large number of plants suggests they were intentionally planted.
Marijuana remains illegal in Wisconsin, though there have been recent legislative efforts to legalize it for medical use.
The Department of Administration is investigating how the plants were introduced to the garden.
