What sort of soil is it?
There are some native plants that like dampish soil near pond, Purple Loosestrife likes damp and sun. Irish Flag irises are another one.
Perhaps the gardener meant invasive, as-in, non-native should not be allowed to spread? Pheasantberry is one such plant...nice, but it goes everywhere and is on the "don't sell list" in Norn Ire.

Anyone have experience planting beds near a pond? Our zealous gardener dug out all of a plant he said was invasive (although had been in the same place for 2 years....) and now I have a big gap, trying to get ideas what would look nice. The spot gets quite a bit of sun so doesn't seem easy
