Significant sighting

10 Mar 2026

New location of a weed that has the potential to become a problem weed in the ACT. Removing plants as they are identified is essential for preventing the spread of the weed.

User's notes

Three plants. Removed and disposed of. Collected as much seed from the ground as possible.

Fantastic job removing the plants! Hopefully you were able to eradicate these plants before they were able to get a foothold at this location.
