Tumbleweed (rethinking title)

Idea

Tumbleweed[1][2] lives in the north of the world. It grows from a seed. In autumn, its roots will dry up, and the whole plant will be easily moved by the wind. When they are moved by the wind, their seeds will also fall to the ground while they are tumbling. It is an alien species to the United States, and the United States is threatened by it every year[3]. They will block the roads, will block people's doors and cause some disturbance to people's lives. I thought about what would happen if I made a similar object like this and put it in a southern city's street in China? This city has a humid climate and is very different from the environment tumbleweed lived before.
