Myriophyllum was imported for trade in pond and aquarium plants. The plants come into nature because people throw away excess plants in public waters, after which they can spread further.

Myriophyllum beautiful but a nuisance
Myriophyllum or Red stem is a water plant that prefers to take root on the transition from land to water. The stems can grow up to 2 meters long and protrude a few decimetres above the water. Red stem grows particularly well in shallow, warm and nutrient-rich waters. The plant usually roots in shallow riparian zones, but free-floating stems without roots can also survive in nutrient-rich deep water. Red stem is originally from South America.
