Now, will the cops tear your door down because you have these plants? I would say it's highly unlikely, but it is good to know that some of these plants are not good for our native plants to thrive.

The reason these plants are listed in the database as noxious or invasive is that they grow so vigorously that it chokes out some of our native plants. These plants are important for the ecosystem of a particular area. Plants and animals in that area are interconnected and benefit greatly from each other.

To be labeled an invasive plant, it must be foreign to the ecosystem. Some of the threats from invasive plants are not necessarily because they are just bad plants, it's because they love our climate and they can spread easily.
