Invasive Plants 


Weed like you to know...looks can be deceiving!

These plants are actually WEEDS! Although they look pretty, they possess unique characteristics for out-competing other plants. These exotic invaders quickly establish thick stands that are threatening native habitats. Infesting over 70 million acres of western wildlands, exotic weeds are having a devastating ecological and economic impact!

There is good news - 90% of federal lands are not significantly infested - yet. By becoming familiar with exotic weeds, we can prevent their establishment.
