Season 3: Invasive Plants- Cogon Grass: You came to watch me burn

Cogon Grass looks relatively harmless, sometimes even pretty.  But it hides a history of murderous and invasive habits.

Another plant introduced in an attempt to curb erosion, this plant's most dangerous trait is the fact that it can set entire hillsides on fire.  It can grow quickly and makes quick work of other plants by making difficult for them to survive at best, and burning them to a crisp at worst!  Come and listen to us talk about this interesting and terrifying plant, Cogon Grass.
