Hi https://canberra.naturemapr.org/users/2286
No worries; they are quickly dealt with. Four plants only is a great improvement compared to 10 years ago when Jo, Liese and I manually removed 100's of Verbascums in that area. The few which germinate are of course gigantic (high nutrient level in drainage) and will be super fun to tackle :-)
