Significant sighting

6 Nov 2018

This is a significant weed that seems to be becoming more widespread in the Canberra area, great that it was controlled before it had time to spread further

Great to hear. It does have a tendency to resprout from the rhizome. So best to monitor.

The kangaroos seem to have eaten out everything except the Carex and Eryngium so it’s probably a good time to check it out. Will do.
