Interesting video on the nuances of the categories of native, non-native, naturalized, and invasive. While we tend to be pro-native species here because they are hugely undervalued by our current society, non-native species can also have their place in urban landscapes. Invasive species should be avoided however.

Nice video.

And always remember, on the internet, not everyone is from the US.

I've read many comments like "don't plant clover, it's invasive!" - it isn't where I live ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
