If you've been anywhere along the California coast, you've seen it—ice plant. It's a low, spreading succulent with finger-like leaves and bright pink or yellow flowers.

This week on the show, producer Pauline Bartolone digs into the effects of this pretty pest, and some other herbaceous interlopers.
