Home and garden online Magazine: September: Week 39 Pest Plants SEVERAL years ago I asked readers of the Los Angeles Times to send me the names of garden plants that grew out of control. The subject came up because several things I had planted were suddenly trying to take over the place. We're not talking about weeds here, but things planted on purpose that soon begin behaving like weeds--invasively spreading underground or everywhere sprouting from seeds. Here, then, is a list of menace plants suggested by The Times readers. Each was mentioned in at least several letters, so it is not just one person's condemnation. Though I would be suspect of any plant in this list, it is important to realize that not all people feel the same about these plants.

This list of invasive plants affecting natural areas in the U.S. (including Hawaii) has been compiled from a wide variety of publications, reports, surveys, and occasional personal observations. Sources of plant lists include the National Park Service and other federal agencies, state and local natural resource and related departments, Exotic Pest Plant Councils and related organizations, The Nature Conservancy, and universities. Sources for each plant listed are provided on the table (a legend for the source code is provided from the REFERENCE(S) header). The current list includes over 1000 plants and is updated as needed. Please contact Jil Swearingen (jil_swearingen@nps.gov) regarding any errors, omissions or potential additions to the list. (environmental weed)
