User's notes
Variegated form; sprayed as a trial with Starane and wetter begin of April 2026. There seems some reduction: compare with https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4653447. Parks and Conservation Service gave volunteers "permission" to spray the periwinkle which is spreading beyond the swale that runs behind backyards; volunteers would usually not touch garden extensions.
