Do you know what’s growing in your yard? Have you unintentionally planted an invasive species that poses a continual and ongoing threat to our environment? Please consider surveying your home landscapes for any of these bad actors and targeting them for removal.
Each one of these top 5 invasive plants commonly found in home landscapes is listed as highly invasive by the Indiana Invasive Species Council and three are currently banned by the Indiana Terrestrial Plants rule. |
The Indiana Terrestrial Plant Rule (312 IAC 18-3-25) designates 44 species of plants as invasive pests. This rule makes it illegal to sell, gift, barter, exchange, distribute, transport, or introduce these plants in the State of Indiana. |
