New location of this major weed which threatens to become more widespread in our area as our climate heats up

User's notes

Private property. No public access without permission. Will remove ASAP once IDed, unless a native (fingers crossed). Not sure how it got here if it is fireweed...

Thanks for the ID Michael and Steve. Will black bag and cook in sun before disposing. I have let my nearest neighbour know to be on the lookout as well. Cheers, Sandra
