🍃What is the most invasive w**d in Canada?
Invasive Phragmites, or European common reed, is Canada’s most harmful invasive plant. It creates dense monocultures in wetlands, displacing native species and threatening local wildlife such as turtles and snakes. This aggressive grass can reach heights of 5 meters and releases toxins from its roots, harming nearby plants.

🌸"Your hands itch to pull out invasive species and replant the native flowers... These are antidotes to the poison of despair."
— Robin Wall Kimmerer
