Brazilian Pepper
Brazilian Pepper is an invasive plant species native to South America, particularly Brazil. It belongs to the Anacardiaceae family and is known for its bright red berries and glossy green leaves. The plant can grow up to 30 feet tall and thrives in various environments, often forming dense thickets that can outcompete native vegetation.
This species is often found in Florida and other parts of the United States, where it poses ecological challenges. Its rapid growth and ability to spread quickly can disrupt local ecosystems, making it a target for removal efforts by conservationists and land management agencies.
