The Giant Hogweed is a large, invasive plant native to the Caucasus region. It can grow up to 14 feet tall and has thick, hollow stems covered in purple spots. The plant produces large, umbrella-like clusters of white flowers, which can be quite striking in appearance. However, it poses significant risks to human health and the environment. Contact with the sap of Giant Hogweed can cause severe skin burns and blisters, especially when exposed to sunlight. This plant can also outcompete native species, disrupting local ecosystems. Due to its harmful effects, many regions have implemented control measures to manage its spread.
