3 Wax Myrtle Morella cerifera Description: M. cerifera is an evergreen shrub or small tree growing up to 35. The multiple crooked trunks are covered in a smooth, grayish-white bark. The olive green leaves are 3 long with serrated top edges growing in an alternate pattern. Flowers are grayish-white, less than 1/8 in diameter. The grayish-blue fruit is ¼ wide and grows in dense clusters along the twigs. The fruit is heavily coated with a smooth wax. Impacts: M. cerifera forms dense thickets and promotes fire frequency. M. cerifera is a major Florida agriculture weed, dominating the pastures. It becomes weedy with its rapid growth and frequent suckering from trunk base and roots. WRA: 20 Origin, Distribution, and Habitat: M. cerifera is native to the coastal southeastern United Sates. M. cerifera was first introduced to Maui in 1932, other island distribution is unknown. M. cerifera grows in a variety of habitats: wetlands, lava flows, sand dunes, salt tolerant. Forest and Kim Starr Forest and Kim Starr Forest and Kim Starr Dispersal, Seed bank, and Maturity: The major method of seed dispersal is by birds. Underground runners extend the growth locally. M. cerifera is not self-compatible. M. cerifera forms a seed bank. Seedlings will mature in 3 years. 3
4 Feathertop Grass Pennisetum villosum Description: P. villosum is a perennial clumping grass growing up to 3 tall. The leaf-blades are flat and light-green. The stems are round with distinctive feathery seedheads and can grow 2-5 long. The inflorescence is a panicle of clustered spikelets surrounded by white bristles. Impacts: P. villosum forms dense clumps that will dominate an infested area. This is a firepromoting grass that recovers quickly after fire. It is not a good pasture grass and it degrades the quality of pasture lands. WRA: 24 Magnus Manske Alvesgaspar Origin, Distribution, and Habitat: P. villosum is native to Africa and Arabia and was first noted on Big Island in Other island distribution unknown. Ornamental plant that is cultivated. Dispersal, Seed bank, and Maturity: Seeds spread by wind, water, and contaminated soil, machinery and animals. P. villosum is self-pollinating. Spreads vegetatively by rhizomes and root segments in soil. Prolific seeder but seedling establishment is usually poor. Seeds mature in 1-2yrs.
5 Barbados gooseberry Pereskia aculeata Description: P. aculeata is a woody shrub when young and grows into a climbing, leafy cactus, with branches up to 33 long. There are clustered spines along the stems. Leaves are smooth blades 2.5 long. The fragrant flowers are white, pale yellow, or aging to pink and can be lemon, sweet, or repulsive smelling. The fruit is smooth with green leafy protuberances, 1-2 in diameter, and round yellow-red berries. Kauderwelsch Joao de Deus Medeiros Impacts: P. aculeata has a tendency to form large, impenetrable clumps; it is extremely thorny with spines on both the trunks and vines. The spiny thickets displace native plants and affect wildlife habitats. P. aculeata completely destroys patches of forest by growing up into the canopy and smothering the trees. WRA: 13 Origin, Distribution, and Habitat: P. aculeata is native to the West Indies and the northern coast of South America. It was introduced to Hawaiʻi for horticulture. P. aculeata is currently being controlled on Molokaʻi and Oʻahu. Dispersal, Seed bank, and Maturity: Seeds are birddispersed fruit. Broken stem fragments will root. P. aculeate is not self-compatible. Maturity and seed bank unknown. Not a prolific seeder. 5
6 Salt Cedar Tamarix aphylla Description: T. aphylla is a large evergreen tree 30 in height. The scale-like leaves are small (1/16 long), gray-green in color, and overlap each other on the stem. They exude salt, which can form a crusted layer on the surface. The bark is smooth and reddish on young plants and turns brown and furrowed with age. When flowering, large numbers of pinkish white flowers form in dense masses on 2 long spikes at the branch tips. Impacts: T. aphylla is fast growing and forms extensive dense thickets. The deeply penetrating roots often intercept the water table and interfere with the watershed. The surface soil salinity increases due to salt excretion. Native plants and wildlife habitats are reduced. T. aphylla is a flood hazard becoming established along streams and trapping sedimentation. WRA: 13 Bidgee Origin, Distribution, & Habitat: T. aphylla is native to Africa and Asia. T. aphylla is present on all Hawaiian Islands. T. aphylla grows in desert scrub and washes, riparian habitats, and disturbed sited. It is salt tolerant and grows commonly along coastal areas. Dispersal, Seed bank, & Maturity: Spread by wind and water (broken limbs). Spread locally by suckers. T. aphylla will root from broken stems. Prolific seeder but seeds sprout quickly or are sterile. Seedling will mature in 3yrs.
