Description:
This guide identifies common and showy roadside invasive grasses and forbs, all of which are on various State noxious weed lists. Several of the plants shown are native to the US, but are not native to the specific geographic areas in which they are known to be invasive. These plants can invade and degrade both agricultural land and natural areas. Invasive plant species are common to many regions of the United States and continue to adapt and move to new habitats, particularly disturbed roadside areas. We provide this guide with the expectation that it will help roadside vegetation managers and maintenance personnel to identify and control invasive plants in their jurisdictions.
