T his picture of a potential Giant Hogweed plant that was growing along the edge of our trail. These were very close to the Adelaide St. Bridge, on the south west side of the bridge.
Giant Hogweed is a very dangerous plant. At this time, we have not confirmed that it is a Giant Hogweed. It could be another member of the group of Giant Hogweed wannabees. Most of these wannabees are also capable of causing nasty rashes in susceptible people.
We will be assessing these plants soon. In the meantime, if you encounter them, stay clear of them.
