This is a weedy tree and local government has
stopped planting it. It has been found in the Aranda Bushland and the western
side of Black Mountain to where the nearest source is Yarralumla. Also in the
woodland near the Campbell Park Offices on the east side of Mt Ainsle where COG
holds it's annual nest workshop, nearest source is Ainslie (Paterson St, Tyson
St, and Sherbrooke St.). They are not scheduled for replacement anytime
soon, unless there is public pressure to do so but will not be
replanted when they cenesce.
It is listed in "Molonglo Catchment Weed
Information Pack" as a 'weed to watch'
It is hard to pull out unless less than 30cm
tall because the tap root is thick and deep.
