FOR179 - Woodland Invasive Plant Management Series: Autumn Olive

Autumn olive was introduced from Asia in the 1800s and was promoted for many years for erosion control, as a windbreak, and to create wildlife habitat. Since that time, autumn olive has invaded much of eastern North America. While it is most problematic on reclaimed mining sites, it can colonize a diverse range of habitats including closed canopy forests.
