User's notes
this patch under Exocarpos cupressiformis (Cherry Ballart) surveyed for Galium aparine (Cleavers) and other herbaceous weeds. The patch is part of FoMM's "Cleavers under Cherry Ballarts" project to remove nutrient loving weeds from under the Cherry trees around Clancy's track and restore native ground cover; see the same site and project description here: https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4726858. Two small clumps of Cleavers found and removed.
