I support the proposal to add the listed 12 plants to the noxious weed list. As others have said, we must also include a much wider range of plants. Number one on my list is English ivy, Hedera helix. We must also control the spread of burning bush, Euonymus alatus, and Japanese barberry, Berberis thunbergi, among many other devastating plants. These three plants are already on the Virginia Invasive Plant Species List. It's long past due to ban their sale by moving them to the noxious weed list. We are paying a huge price to "enjoy" these plants, and the next generations will pay an even greater price.  Please expand the list now, thank you.
