Thank you for the information. We will keep an eye on this species when we do weeding.

@Tapirlord, there are sightings from about 18 Maps/Places so I would have thought it is now established.

We went back to the area and removed 33. Some had flowers and seeds, but some were small young ones. Most were under a large tree across the path.
