Caught in the Act - The Mischievous Invader!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Bob Gibbons, we witness the notorious Common Salvinia, a floating water fern, flaunting its invasive nature. Originally from South America, this troublemaker has made its way to North America and caused quite a stir! With its luscious green fronds delicately resting on the water's surface, it's hard not to be mesmerized by the beauty of this exotic plant. But don't let its innocent appearance fool you! This pteridophyte is known for wreaking havoc in wetlands across the United States. Like an uninvited guest crashing a party, these masses of Salvinia have taken over our waters with their relentless growth. They may look harmless from above but beneath that serene facade lies an ecological nightmare. But hey, let's give credit where credit is due - talk about determination! These feisty ferns have managed to establish themselves as one of North America's most infamous introduced species. It's like they've built their own tropical paradise right here in our backyards! So next time you spot these aquatic troublemakers floating around your local pond or lake, take a moment to appreciate their audacity while also recognizing the importance of protecting our native ecosystems from such invaders. And thanks to Bob Gibbons' stunning photography skills, we can now marvel at both their beauty and mischievousness captured forever on paper!
