I am very interested in understanding how one decides and traces the nativity of a plant. How is it that a plant gets its identity as a exotic, a ‘naturalised’ and a native?

Is such information available in books?
Even if it is available, I feel this would be an interesting topic for all the experts to discuss on eflora based on their experiences and their understanding about the topic.
Please let me know what you think.
