Anchorage, Alaska, United States |
Alaska has issued a statewide quarantine banning the import, transport and sale of European bird cherry (Prunus padus) and chokecherry (Prunus virginiana), invasive trees that displace native vegetation and can harm wildlife. The order, effective Sept. 1, 2025, expands Anchorage’s 2017 ban and aims to curb further spread and disease risks.
