Maybe not in forestry, but I still see developers planting them all over the place.

They need to be banned. There are miles and miles of these trees along 32 and 95, and just on my road they’re completely taking over large swaths of woods. (Aided by English Ivy killing of mature trees in the area. That should be banned too).

They are banned in some areas due to them being invasive. Then they came out with like neutered versions but those are still invasive. I believe they are banned in PA now but don't quote me and I'm too lazy to find a source.
