Hi Michael M.
This one was small and I pulled it up, but there was a bigger one which I would need a shovel to remove and it is still there.
On that sunny day I noticed at least one other plant along Drakeford Drive but further north.

Thanks Michael will take a mattock next time I am down that way

Should I ask TCCS for permission or just take my mattock across the road to the park? Glyphosate might be less strenuous.

Yes mike go ahead and remove plants -whichever way - Thanks

These plants are occasionally spotted along roadways when driving past and the flowers are open and I sometimes report them. The worst patch locally is one near Point Hut Pond which has 30 plus plants:
