Return of Peruvian Watergrass

Howard Cormier, Extension Agent in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana, reports that Peruvian watergrass is back. USDA has this species on its list of Invasive and Noxious Weeds.

It disappeared from canals after Hurricane Rita's 2005 storm surge, but it is now being found in the Forked Island area.
