A nasty, someone should remove it quickly if possible if there is only one, I should be able to remove it Wednesday or Thursday if need be. :)

Awesome, fantastic that this infestation can be nipped in the bud, I did see a broom of some kind near groom st (Sect 58). But it was beyond my capabilities to remove it at the time, if it has gone then someone has done us a service. :)

Usually the flowers are all yellow but there are some nursery cultivars with different coloured flowers which I think may be teh origin of these plants
