🌾 Can you spot invasive Phragmites?

Invasive Phragmites, also known as European Common Reed, can quickly take over wetlands, shorelines, roadsides and other natural areas.

🔎 Look for these key features in the diagram

🌱 Not all Phragmites are invasive! Native Phragmites can look similar, so proper identification is important before removing a plant.
