The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) maintains a quarantine list of plants, also called the prohibited plants list, whose sale or distribution is prohibited in the state. All Class A Noxious Weeds are on this list. There are also plants on the list to prevent them from being imported and spread in our state.
WSDA recently added several noxious weeds to the quarantine list including: yellow archangel (Lamiastrum galeobdolon), butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii) except sterile cultivars, oriental clematis (Clematis orientalis), French broom (Genista monspessulana), and giant reed (Arundo donax) (except variegated cultivars).
