January 2nd week
- Big blue MG is away & climbing along the track to McCauley Beach estate
- Pearl Vine is climbing everything that attempts vertical, around the creek bend
- Behind the Blady Grass every weed we possess is out-competing our plantings & each other
A plastic picker-upper (with an interest in Geology) could be gainfully employed along the back of the beach, while a Lily Specialist could ferret forever in the Kikuyu, east of the Cycleway.
2023 The full suite of weediness
It is blooming, from 3 metre Scotch Thistles & flaunting Fleabane to conspicuous flowering Cassia. It's mostly weeding tomorrow except for some opportunities to destroy Cassia for choppers /poisoners.
2022 A pandemic of weeds
A full pandemic of weeds has arisen over the past three weeks but at least watering isn't an issue.
We need to prioritise Lisa's Site, hacking into the reeds (see below) to see what lies beneath.If numbers allow, the Blady Grass zone has resurgent Purpletop, Fleabane, Lily & Cottonbush.
Should a 4th worker group be available, the Stone Road/Boge Massacre sites offer the full range of weediness, including the lovely flowering Montbretia.
Reeds
What we have in the boggy areas of Hewitts Creek is likely to be Phragmites Australis:
