noxious weeds
Unwanted invasive flora
Noxious weeds are plants officially designated as harmful—to agriculture, ecosystems, or human health—and often subject to legal control requirements.
The classification varies by jurisdiction: what's noxious in one state may be tolerated in another.
Common examples include kudzu, thistle, and purple loosestrife.
The county requires landowners to remove noxious weeds from their property.
