My suggestion refers to the "elephant-ear" shaped plant, which is not normally thought of as invasive I don't think in Hawaii...there are 300 varieties http://www.ntbg.org/plants/plant_details... although I guess it is listed as such, in invasive lists http://www.invasive.org/browse/subinfo.c...

Hi jusychen. Welcome to Project Noah. It's a great idea to document invasive species. Each spotting really needs to focus on a single species. In this one for example you could be looking at either the grass or the broad-leafed plant. If it is mixed like in this photo you should put a description to clear up any confusion. Keep the spottings coming.
