Thanks kieran
I was spending my two hours of exercise weeding in this area and came across a single long-leaved wax flower and wonder whether some-one has done some random plantings within the reserve - it is also near the Pandora location. The long-leaved wax flower s a local Canberra species.
@ACTParks-InvasivePlantsTeam and @gregbaines do you have a view on whether Acacia cardiophylla is a local species or not - we seem to be on the edge of its recorded range? and we have records from Black Mountain, Wanniassia ridge, Farrer Ridge and in Tuggeranong?

Cheers Michael
