Invasive Plants on the Loop
Do your part to help curb the spread of Brazilian Pepper Trees
Mother of Millions "Pretty" Harmful Invasive
Mother of Millions "Pretty" Harmful Invasive
The dangerous and invasive Brazilian Pepper tree blooms from September through November, and the fruit matures by December. Please, do your part to curb its spread, especially when blooming!
This is one of the most destructive trees growing along the Loop, smothering our native trees and shrubs. If you have this tree in your yard or nearby, please, at the very least, cut all the blossoms and seed branches off the tree so they cannot ripen. Do not handle the tree with your hands - WEAR GLOVES and read the attached link about cutting and disposal of the branches and seeds. Every ripe, red seed eaten by a bird can be further distributed to make more Brazilian Pepper trees.

Mother of Millions "Pretty" Harmful Invasive
Mother of Millions or Chandelier Plant (Kalanchoe x houghtonii) is a non-native, invasive plant that displaces our native dune vegetation.
Mother of Millions, so named because of how rapidly it spreads, is a succulent with gorgeous blooms. It is especially harmful to our dunes as it spreads rapidly and displaces native plants. Our native plants have deep roots which help stabilize the dunes while this invasive has very shallow roots which do nothing to help the dunes. These shallow roots do make them extremely easy to pull out and according to a post by ECHO Volusia Forever it's ok to remove these from our dunes and dispose of them in a black trash bag in the garbage or you can report them on the IveGot1 app https://apps.bugwood.org/apps/ivegot1/
