Invasive Species

Yellow River Nurseries does not carry any plants or trees that are considered “invasive” in Wisconsin or any Upper Midwest state.   Many of the bigger box stores carry everything with no concern, but we do not.    We have no desire to contribute to a problem.  There are several resources on the web, but no single listing.   If you believe we are carrying something that warrants a review, please reach out.

This applies to the following varieties:

• American Bittersweet (Celastrus scandens) 

• Amur Maple (Acer tataricum subsp. ginnala) 

• Amur Honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii)

• Autumn Olive (Elaeagnus umbellata)

• Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia)

• Burning Bush (Euonymus alatus)

• European Cranberrybush (Viburnum opulus)

• Flame Maple (Acer ginalla 'Flame')

• Norway Maple (Acer platanoides)

• Russian Olive (Elaeagnus angustifolia)

• Sawtooth Oak (Quercus acutissima)

• White Mulberry (Morus alba)

• White Poplar (Populus alba)
