It seems to be in shrubs, in fact, several of the cacti & succulents seem to have moved over...........

Opuntia ficus-indica and Opuntia stricta cover the northwest side of Scrivener Hill. The ParkCare Group has previously removed bags of the plants. 1.2 hectares is currently shown on Field Maps as ‘to be treated’ so maybe it is in the program for this year. I don’t know if anything can be done about the source of the problem which comes from the boundary of embassy property.
