Abstract

Noxious Weeds

Beautiful but deadly, these plants are rapidly invading our forest floors, creating havoc with local flora and fauna.

Capable of producing thousands of seeds per plant which may lie dormant for many years, they pose a very real threat to the continued existence and biodiversity of our environment.
