I didn't want to chance getting seeds in my backpack so I am going back soon to remove it (and the other one not far away). It is row 779 in the full exotic list 'nice to have additional specimens' for the Herbarium so that's where they will go. The main site further south near Corrigan Place seems to be clear after a few years work but I will be checking for non-flowering seedlings.

I misremembered the spot and walked past it three times. It has now been removed and collected for the Herbarium.
