Never mind. Not reporting an invasive Mimosa tree in an Oklahoma park. It requires use of iNaturalist or EDDMapS and I limit the number of apps on my phone for mental health.

You could also use the app - EDDMapS. Early Detection will handle insect 'sightings'. I have it on my Android phone. INaturalist is also good!

Invasive distribution is hard to accurately cite due to limited survey information, gaps in understanding, and expanding NA ranges. It takes an average of 40 years to get official status. In China, Burning bush grows in forests, woodlands, and scrublands.
