a few solid acres, and the plants themselves had then spread out along the highway embankment for at least a mile, probably getting dragged along further with each pass of the mowers and each breathe of wind. It may have been the most horrifying "newish" invasive
spread I had ever seen. The field itself was massive and stood out like a hay field ready for harvest. It was dumbfounding. It certainly merits some serious attention.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

in Maryland. I think that it is further along the invasive curve than black fountain grass (Cenchrus purpurascens aka Pennisetum alopecuroides), but I am now seeing C. purpurascens starting to spread in the wild. I believe that we need to pay attention right
away to this new invader, its cultivars and closely related species, including purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus aka Pennisetum setaceum).<br>

Regarding Phrag, some areas here have given up on eradication, and are now concentrating on managing it, if that’s even possible. We are very prone to flooding, though, so with sea level rise which we are living, it will be interesting to see it move as it
doesn’t tolerate standing water. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

This species is a native to the Coastal Plain ecoregions throughout the mid-Atlantic, but it is becoming adventive in the Piedmont and various mountain ecoregions. I agree with Margaret Chatham that a likely reason for this movement is salt tolerance -- I
see the plant fairly frequently in the difficult strip next to highways that have been treated with salt. So, I'm not sure that Baccharis halimifolia is going to become a problem.<br>

for salt-tolerant plants. (And Ii see Miscanthus spread as primarily driven by planted seed sources — strictly anecdotal comment.)

my one and only visit there. In NC at turn of the century it was only invasive on Mount Mitchell and some horticulturist of great stature, perhaps the one who wrote "the book" on shrubs/trees, said in a discussion at NC Bot Gardens that only one variety of
Miscanthus was invasive. In recent years I've seen examples of invasion in NJ and PA along freeways.

Kudzu is gradually becoming worse in the northern mid-Atlantic as things warm. Colder temps used to hold back Hedera helix in our north but that obviously is changing. I'm sure there is a long list of southern invasives marching toward us now... Cheers,
