Plants that display a specific set of criteria can land on regulated federal and state invasive plant lists — but not all that meet those criteria are deemed invasive. Some of those plants are readily available at garden centers and commonly found in Illinois yards, despite a constant battle by landowners and conservation workers to keep them out of natural areas. In this session, learn how to identify these species of concern, find ways to control them in natural areas, and pick up ideas for alternatives for the home landscape.
