I live in Hall County and drive to work in Forsyth County, listening to your show every Saturday morning.
In early September 2006, I heard you and Teresa Schrum discussing renegade pampas grass on I-85 between Beaver Ruin and Steve Reynolds Boulevard. I wanted to report another escapee. On Browns Bridge Road (Highway 369) in Forsyth County, eastbound side, approximately 2/10 to 3/10 of a mile west of mile marker 16, there's another "escapee."
Like Teresa, I didn't notice it until it bloomed. Once I did, it seemed strange to see it in the middle of nowhere, obviously not planted by humans. I heard you say the plant is becoming a problem out west, so I thought you'd like to know about a second renegade.
Email Walter if you have seen other "escaped" pampas grass clumps.
• I spotted one along I-85 at Old Peachtree Road, obscured by pines until it bloomed.
