Hi Daysend, this is a significant weed and threat to ACT's native bushland. If you are able to treat and remove plant that would be great- particularly prior to the pod releasing its wind dispersed seeds.

Thanks Michael, I destroyed the pods and then posted the picture thinking it might be of interest to this forum.
