Other Naturalized or invasive species in our
area. These plants have been covered in earlier
lectures and labs but these are also considered
somewhat invasive, although some more so than
others. Norway maple is not native but has
become naturalized. Box-elder has become
naturalized outside of its native range
(according to Farrar).There are many species of
roses and some have escaped into the forest edge.
Multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) is one
example. Norway Maple Acer pensylvanicum
Box-Elder or Manitoba maple Acer negundo Rose
Rosa spp.
