Good on you Mike for removing the Himalayan honeysuckle from Issacs. I have seen it as a major weed in the Dandenongs above Melbourne. Isaacs may be a little dry for its liking, but it is definitely not one we would want to get into Namadgi's wet gullies.

It is an old sighting and I check fairly often but there are no new plants. The site is certainly not dry at present.
