Everyone knows about the evil nature of this invasive alien plant. Shame it should be such a nuisance, not to mention potentially dangerous, because it's actually quite attractive to look at. It is a major pest on some rivers locally, and while not so far causing a big problem here, it is beginning to establish itself.
