Cottonwoods were found to be competitively superior to saltcedar when flooding allowed seeds of both species to cogerminate.

Unlike giant reed, the saltcedar has deeper roots, not only making it more difficult to remove but allowing it to access and use up deep groundwater.

However, the lack of flooding caused by altered hydrology creates more favorable conditions for the germination of saltcedar over cottonwoods.

The objectives of the ambitious restoration project are to control exotic plants, particularly the phreatophyte Saltcedar - Tamarix (primarily Tamarix ramosissima and T. parviflora), and restoring critical desert California native plant community "structural elements" for a functioning flora and fauna habitat.

Studies have also shown that decreases in groundwater levels may favor the invasion and persistence of certain exotic invasive species such as Saltcedar (Tamarix chinensis), which do not appear to show the same degree of physiologic water stress as native species when subjected to lower groundwater levels.

In the Southeast, it's kudzu; salt cedar in the Southwest and leafy spurge in the Northwest.

"Tamarix ramosissima Summer Glow," said Mr. Weir, rattling off the names as if these were his own children.

At moister places there also willow bushes (Salix) and along lake shores, tamarisk (Tamarix ramosissima).

The larvae feed on Tamarix nilotica, Tamarix gallica and Tamarix ramosissima.

However, the invasive species Tamarisk - Tamarix ramosissima and tumbleweed, Tumbling oracle - Atriplex rosea are successful and problematic competitors.

Field collections in Eurasia reveal that the larger tamarisk beetle feeds on at least nine species of tamarisks, including Tamarix ramosissima which is widely invasive in western North America.

These include Tamarix pentandra, Tamarix tetranda, Tamarix gallica, Tamarix chinensis, Tamarix ramosissima, and Tamarix parvifolia.

To remove giant reed at the end of crop cycle, there are mainly two methods, mechanical or chemical Jackson 1998 Chemical control of giant reed (Arundo donax) and saltcedar (Tamarix ramosissima).

The Salt Cedar (Tamarix ramosissima) tree is particularly dangerous to the ecology of the West Wetlands Park due to the salt that is secreted through its leaves which increases the salinity of the surface soil.

Other threats and potential threats include trampling by mustangs, cattle grazing, mining for clay minerals such as bentonite, sepiolite, and saponite, and introduced plant species such as yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis) and saltcedar (Tamarix ramosissima).

Tamarix ramosissima has naturalized and become a major invasive plant species in parts of the world, such as in the Southwestern United States and Desert Region of California, consuming large amounts of groundwater in riparian and oases habitats.

The objectives of the ambitious restoration project are to control exotic plants, particularly the phreatophyte Saltcedar - Tamarix (primarily Tamarix ramosissima and T. parviflora), and restoring critical desert California native plant community "structural elements" for a functioning flora and fauna habitat.
