Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 10 page report discusses
non-native, invasive plants and the fact that they have often
damaged more habitat than development. Non-native plants or
invasive weeds follow a growth pattern opposite the native plants
and overcome habitats either before or after the native plants
are in season. They may be harmless and beneficial in their
natural surroundings, but they can totally devastate different
environments. Greater effort must be spent to make individuals
aware of the potential harm and destroy non-native invaders when
they first appear. Bibliography lists 16 sources.

information on using this paper properly! Introduction The opening lines of the Internet homepage for Eco-Pros (2001) states: "Established ecosystems have developed their own natural balance and controls over
time, and the plants and animals within those systems find this balance suitable for survival, or they have been able to adapt in order to survive within those conditions.
When non-native species from other ecosystems are introduced, they can upset that balance and bring harm to the established plants and animals, and the whole ecosystem. Non-native species
come from somewhere else and they are not natural to the ecosystem they have been introduced to. They may be harmless and beneficial in their natural surroundings, but they
can totally devastate different environments" (Internet source). That statement is at the heart of any discussion regarding non-native and invasive plants. There is nothing wrong, per se, with a particular
plant . . .until it threatens the plants that are supposed to be in a particular area and which the rest of the ecosystem depends on. If an invasive "alien"
plant overtakes the nutrients and space needed by the native plants and offers nothing back to the larger environment of an area, it becomes the natural worlds version of hazardous
waste or even a terminal disease. Conservationists have noted that non-native, invasive plants (AKA "weeds") have damaged more habitat than development. Non-native plants or invasive weeds follow a growth pattern
