Brazilian Peppertree Treatment and Control on Galveston Island

Summary

The Galveston Bay Foundation will implement the second year of a minimum three-year chemical treatment regime for highly invasive Brazilian peppertrees on Galveston Island. As the plant is predominantly contained to Galveston Island at the present time, this project represents an opportunity to implement a control program with the potential to head off a much larger problem.
