Native forests are invaded, and their precious native plant species are choked out. Extensive areas of pasture land have been colonized by plants that cannot be grazed. Weeds can be a fire hazard, and they can be painful impediments to access to natural areas. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book describes over 150 plants that are considered weeds under certain--if not, in some cases, most--circumstances. The plant types represented include trees, shrubs, vines and sprawlers, herbs, and grasses and their relatives. Most of the weeds covered are illustrated in color, both on the page where the weed is treated and on spreads of \"thumbnail\" images, grouped by growth habit category for convenience in quick identification. The text accompanying the photograph of each weed provides a detailed description, outlines its distribution and environmental impact in Hawai'i, and relates what is known about methods for managing it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eReprinted May 2021 with new cover.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Motooka, Luisa Castro, Duane Nelson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1929325142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781929325146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e College of Tropical Agriculture\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.70h x 8.30w x 0.30d","brand":"Philip Motooka","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47001831866623,"sku":"9781929325146","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_056c1d29-4499-4042-88be-b191f567f6c0.jpg?v=1751602277","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/weeds-of-hawaiis-pastures-and-philip-motooka-9781929325146","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
