the ice plants invasiveness

edit

The plant is hard and does well in a variety of climates. However due to that ability it grows large and thus drowns out the native plants. The ice plant survives by changing the soil moisture, pH and salinity, making the ground uninhabitable and harmful for the native plants to thrive in while helping itself to survive. It is only native to the area of the southern most peak of the African continent but has begun invading suitable ecosystems all around the world. Included in these areas are the Australia, certain parts of the United States, such as Florida and California, most of European countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, as well as large parts of the Southern American Continent. Since the plant itself is easy to remove it is advised to uproot it in these areas, if seen. 79.219.30.92 (talk) 18:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
