Plant
Identification -- Emergent
Weeds |
| Plants which grow above the
water in shallow areas of ponds, lakes, irrigation
ditches and rivers are emergent. These plants are
generally rigid and are not dependent on water for
support. Many are not truly aquatic but can survive in
saturated soils or submerged for a considerable period
of time. |

| Attention: Recommendation
Factors Many factors have been considered in our
recommendations such as effectiveness, toxicity,
environmental impact, ease of application and economics.
Alternative control methods may be necessary due to
water use restrictions. Plant distribution within the
U.S. is shown on shaded maps accompanying weed pictures.
Most of these plants, or closely related species, are
found worldwide. Alternative Control Methods are listed
alphabetically -not in order of preference. |
