User's notes

The last of its kind on the west slope of the reserve as far as I'm aware. This specimen has been cut and painted before however it resprouted. The prefered treatment would have been with a chainsaw cutting low at the bottom. FoMM removed large thickets of African boxthorn, a Weed of National Significance.
