User's notes

This population is within an area zoned for development (the development is planned for three years time. I was able to prevent the site being mown in the hope that the Cullen would set seed. I collected several hundred seeds from about 20 plants. I will attempt to propagate plants for introduction in to nearby Woden reserves (e.g. Farrer Ridge, Mt Taylor, Issaacs Ridge, Mugga Mugga, Red Hill, Oaky Ridge). If you have an interest in re-introducing this plant to these areas I would be happy to provide you with some seed.
