Well spotted! Plant has been removed, and 20 African Lovegrasses nearby, by Landcare Volunteer.

I meant to add yesterday that landcarers call the area downslope to the SW from this spot the Sunrays Grassland and it has good native grass tussocks, especially Themeda, and many flowering forbs. That's why the invasive grasses were quickly despatched.

@pinnaCLE I'm helping water the new plantings there every week so I'll keep an extra eye out for anything invasive. It's a really nice area!
