I found this species highly invasive in high nutrient lower slopes of Mt Majura. Carefully dig out (if single or few plants) or spray; I experimental sprayed with Starane when I treated StJW and found it worked; selective herbicide MCPA or brushoff didn't; I haven't tried the all-round killer Glypho which I use for invasive grasses and woody weeds only.
