Description | A native of southern Africa, this is a listed noxious weed in much of Victoria. Most seeds germinate after fire. Can grow to 3m high. As a seedling it can be mistaken for a Goodenia (which however don't form woody shrubs). |
Distribution | Scattered throughout Baluk Willam Reserve, mostly in the south-east. |
Removal | Smaller plants can readily be pulled out by hand. Large, woody plants may need to be cut and herbicide applied. |
