And I forgot to mention how the stems break (I think it's a very clever mechanism) if you try to pull the plant out by the top of its leaves and stems. You have to get down to the mud interface between roots and stem, right at its base and dislodge a huge dollop of mud with it to be sure to get the whole root structure. It's quite heavy to lift and bring up to the surface, at least until the mud falls away.

After listening to an online presentation on Invasive Aquatic Plants, the DEP rep said something along the lines of "once you've got it, you've got it" There's no getting rid of it, we can only maintain and control it as best we can. So, there you have it!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17094950391831178552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96099316254027359.post-33380913774918290982020-06-23T23:47:35.572-04:002020-06-23T23:47:35.572-04:00Oh my!
