It is.

I just ordered a bunch of native seedlings from the NH Nursery.

They are dirt cheap, but small, but since we are trying to clear out invasives and replace with native species, it’s great.

Besides, it’s not climate anything that drives invasives. It’s lack of natural things to keep them in check.

I'm more concerned about invasive people coming across our Borders...

I can kill invasive plants....@ least for now.

The Big Island has some horrible pests brought in by nursery plants from other countries. One is teeny frogs that make an insane racket 24/7. People there either go mad and move or adapt somehow. Second is a sort of tiny slug that causes “rat lung worm” disease which is utterly dreadful.
