What is considered a beneficial plant? In this era of global change, The Unruly Wild is a timely and relevant look at plant conservation and the evolving plant communities of the American Southwest.

Challenging the traditional invasion biology paradigm, Juliet C. Stromberg invites readers to reconsider the "alien invader" narrative and explore the beneficial roles that newly arrived plants can play in our ecosystems. Drawing from her extensive experience as a plant and restoration ecologist, Stromberg introduces a cast of plant characters that includes longtimers as well as newcomers.

Through compelling stories and scientific insights, Stromberg explains why some plants are thriving while others are in decline. Stromberg's engaging narrative, enriched with personal anecdotes and detailed vignettes, encourages readers to pause, reflect, and deepen their relationship with the plant world. By promoting a more nuanced and respectful dialogue about our natural surroundings, this book offers valuable insights into biodiversity, climate resilience, and ecosystem restoration. This book is a call to embrace a more inclusive and adaptive approach to wild plants.

Juliet C. Stromberg is a plant ecologist who specializes in riparian ecosystems and a professor emeritus at Arizona State University. Her most recent book is Bringing Home the Wild: A Riparian Garden in a Southwest City.
