Found growing in leaf litter on a road. Guessing it is Sennico madegascaerensis, I pulled it out to bag and dispose of.

Yes good spotting - a couple previous records here so a site to continue monitoring

Great work spotting and controlling this. I will organise the Biosecurity team for wider search of the area as we have several known sites in Braddon.
