INFORMATION!

EURASIAN WATERMILFOIL
Myriophyllum spicatum

myriophyllum spicatum - eurasian watermilfoil


This introduced species is readily distinguishable from its native counterparts. The growing plant will have a red coloration or tint with leaves in whorls of 4. There are up to 12 pairs of capillary segments (stalks) which help make these segments stiff and rigid unlike the native species. This species has the potential to become a major problem in the state because it is spread by fragmentation.
