These shrubs are very common and spreading rapidly, along the river to the south and north of Pine Island.

This shrub seems to be a serious weed problem, even if it is a native. Is that true?

Michael it hybridises with Grevillea rosmarinifolia (the cultivar of this is called Grevillea XCanberra Gem). While I regard G. rosmarinifolia and G. XCanberra Gem as weeds that could become major pests, I think the spread of G. juniperina is a good thing though it can become pretty dominant in places.
Cheers Michael Mulvaney
