We are trying to get on top of this species before it becomes widespread in the ACT - and sighting is significant.
User's notes
Under Exocarpos cupressiformis.
Several years ago (long before CNM) I removed Bridal Creeper from this area and monitored the area for a number of years before LaNina kicked in; being overwhelmed with other weeds, I forgot about them in the past 2 years....
