Invasive Plants in Maine Forests
This factsheet explains what invasive species are, why they are of concern, which invasives are problematic in Maine and how to control invasive species on homeowners woodland properties.
Invasive plants are able to grow rapidly and aggressively enough to out-compete and displace locally adapted native plants. Many species of invasive plants, but not all, have been brought by people to North America from Europe and Asia.
