Invasive plants are plants that have been transported outside their normal home ranges and are not native to the area.
"Many invasive plants reduce biodiversity by occupying habitat normally utilized by native species. More aggressive invasive species can actually displace natural vegetation by growing so densely as to prevent reproduction by native species, or by physically overtaking natural vegetation such as is observed with kudzu." - North Carolina Forest Service
