IntroductionThis guide is intended to assist Brevard Countyresidents, employees, and professionals to identifyand control non-native invasive plant species found inupland sites.

What is a non-native plant?

A native plant is a species that was here whenEuropeans began to explore and settle the NewWorld. Non-native plants are those species that havebeen brought here from other parts of the world sincethat time.

What is an invasive plant?

An invasive plant is a species that will invade anundisturbed natural area and displace native species.Invasive plants are often more aggressive in disturbedareas, like roadsides.

Non-native invasive plants are also commonly calledexotic plants, invasive exotic plants, noxious weeds,and more.

Note: This guide includes only the plants from otherparts of the world that are most invasive in BrevardCounty’s natural areas, displacing native species anddegrading the environment for native plants andwildlife.

About the descriptions:

The header of the plant description pages has theEnglish name(s), the scientific name in italics, and inparentheses the scientific name of the family.

Photographs of the plants are on the page oppositethe plant descriptions. If the captions refer to morethan one object, they will refer to the objects from leftto right.

The coins in the photographs are always quarters.The diameter of a quarter is 15/16”, roughly an inch.

Purpose

� Increase awareness of the adverse effectsof non-native invasive plants on Brevard’sbiodiversity and ecosystems

� Provide a tool for residents and landmanagers to use to identify and effectivelycontrol non-native invasive plants

� Encourage public participation in theremoval of non-native invasive plants

� Reduce the habitat losses from non-nativeinvasive plant infestations

� Reduce the impacts on endangeredspecies via habitat loss and alteration

� Demonstrate the need to prevent habitatlosses through pest-plant management

� Highlight the socio-economic and adversehealth impacts of these plants (e.g.,increased wildfires in Melaleuca areas)

� Provide information that helps managersset priorities for control programs

About Toxicity and Allergies

Many plants contained within this guide producetoxins and result in allergic conditions when handled,cut, burned, or harvested. Gloves and PersonalProtective Gear (e.g., long-sleeve shirts, glasses,hats) are strongly recommended when handling anyplant material, especially of unknown origin. Cases ofpeople being sensitized, or having an increasingallergic response to particular plants, and theircomponents (leaves, bark, odor, toxins, sap) havebeen documented.

Winged Yam is very similar to Air Potato but haslarger, more frequent underground tubers, longerand less round shaped aerial tubers, and oppositeleaves. The cross section of its stem has purpletinged “wings.” Fruit is a 3-parted capsule and theseeds are also winged. Winged Yam is currentlynot as common in Brevard County as Air Potato, butis still an invasive plant where it does occur.

Page 61: Identification and Control of - FLEPPC · 2016. 4. 11. · Non-native invasive plants are also commonly called exotic plants, invasive exotic plants, noxious weeds, and more. Note:

Like many garden weeds, the small seedlings ofinvasive plants can be hand pulled or dug up, butlike many weeds, parts of their roots may break off inthe ground, left to resprout. The effective control ofinvasive plants often requires a combination oftreatments as well as regular monitoring andretreatment.

In most cases, herbicides must be used to kill theunwanted plant. The following table providesproducts that contain herbicides known to beeffective in controlling invasive plants. This list is notall inclusive, but based on available information andlocal experience. Other products and herbicides areavailable and may provide effective control.

Note: Follow directions on the herbicideproduct label and use appropriate safety

protection. The label is law!

Roundup®: The active ingredient in Roundup® is glyphosate.

Various versions of Roundup® are available, so look for the

concentration you need. You can dilute Roundup® with water

to achieve a lower concentration. Glyphosate is non-selective

so be careful to avoid overspray.

RoundUp®, Brush-B-Gone®, ENFORCER® Brush Killer,

Pathfinder II® , and Vine-X® are available to non-licensed

applicatiors (homeowners) and may not need dilution.
