Pest plants are invasive plants that invade the native habitat, and waterways of other plants. These invasive plants can be both native and non-native to the area, but they all have some negative impact on the environment.
Invasive plants can grow quickly, spread their seeds far, and change habitats in a way that makes it difficult for other species to thrive and grow.
Here is a list of some common pest plants found in New Zealand. Many of these also find a foot hold in New Zealand Waterways, ponds, and lagoons.
Drone Spraying Gorse: Many consider gorse to be New Zealand's worst scrub weed.
Agapanthus : A South African flower that competes with natives. It is very hard to get rid of because of how well it seeds and how tough the plant is to remove.
Blue morning glory : A tropical plant that grows very fast and smothers other plants. It is a high climbing vine that can become the dominant vine wherever it grows.
Didymo : An introduced alga that is also known as 'rock snot'. It is a huge threat to New Zealand rivers. It was first discovered in the South Island of New Zealand in 2004 and started a very large campaign to stop it from spreading further.
Gorse : Introduced to New Zealand by early European settlers for hedges and windbreaks. It is now the most expensive weed in New Zealand to control.
Old man's beard : Can climb as high as 20 meters to cover a canopy and smother other plants. It also stops native plant seedlings from growing.
Privet : An evergreen shrub or tree with poisonous berries that invades the bush by crowding out native trees.
Woolly Nightshade: A common weed, poses significant challenges to native flora. Its rapid spread and growth can cause extensive damage to the environment
Wilding pine: The New Zealand name for conifers that have been introduced to New Zealand. They spread very quickly through our native habitats, killing native plants and forcing native animals to leave.
