Good find Lois. I will get onto this site asap and add it to our list of annual follow-up sites to check.

Pretty sure I've got this on my new Braidwood property, along with a thousand other exotic plants.

Yes Braidwood is a bit of a hotspot for it, perhaps when you are settled in you could organise a CNM working party to cut and dab it - I have access to the required equipment and chemical dabbers.

30+ plants treated today. A lot of small ones hidden in the long grass. We will follow up here in a few months to get any we may have missed
