List of Adventive Wild Plants in Israel

List of adventive wild plants in Israel refers to species of vascular plants in Israel that were either introduced there by human activity or are of a cultivated origin, and meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • species which have reached a self-propagating (naturalized) status in Israel, reproducing without further human intervention
  • species that appear in natural habitats
  • cultivated species that escape from cultivation or persist long after being abandoned

The first table lists species which are unquestionably non-indigenous to Israel; a second table lists species whose native distribution in Israel is questionable.
