NZ spinach is a bit of a weed right above high-tide
mark near San Francisco and, I believe, elsewhere
along the California coast (as are Pittosporum
crassifolium and Myoporum laetum). None are noxious
like some of the European brooms and gorses, but they
do naturalize. Oh, and Coprosma repens and
Metrosideros excelsa "naturalize" in cracks in the
sidewalk in the more densely-built parts of San
Francisco--can hardly be called weeds, more gifts.
