It could mean anything from private land with an easement to prohibit building on it to a National Park, depending on context and jurisdiction. It's just a non-specific term for "land that is conserved in some way."

    Yeah, I guessed that much myself by now.

    So there is no deeper meaning but the meme is just crappily ill-defined and because of this actually doesn't make sense.

    I mean, it's sufficiently descriptive to imply that randos shouldn't (ordinarily) be messing with the plants on it. As a native English speaker, it makes sense just fine.

    But the meme doesn't talk about randos.

    It specifically mentions the meme creator seeing someone "cleaning invasives", implying that all people involved have some level of competence and know what's going and that there isn't any reason to pretend to be a blind pirate.
