User's notes
Approx 4m tall multi-stemmed firethorn in grassy woodland; there are several large firethorns in this area which are beyond volunteer capacity to treat (too big for volunteer's wee-saws cutting and glyphosate application would be not fast enough for this suckering species, not possible to frill because multi-stem growth which hinders frilling with axe around each stem, see also https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4640609); reported a number of times in the past.
