Parrotfeather is an invasive aquatic plant that thrives along pond edges, often trailing across the water’s surface. Its deeply cut, feathery-looking leaves are bright blue-green and arranged in whorls of 4–6 around the stem. This plant spreads rapidly, forming dense mats that can choke out native vegetation, reduce water flow, and interfere with recreational activities. Due to its aggressive growth and ability to regenerate from fragments, early detection and proper management are essential to prevent its spread and maintain a balanced aquatic ecosystem.
