Mike this is the second posting in two days of a plant used in wetland restoration that was not the species thought to be planted - the other was of a Marselia species at Hackett. Fortunately in both cases the species mis-planted was in fact a local species, but perhaps we should keep an eye on this - what are the details of your planting

I will check this. Having the wrong name can be a problem but so could having the wrong species. When I was told the species I noted that M. papillosum is not on the ACT Plant Census.
