I bought a house in September 2020. A clean pallet for another 15 years as I’ve recently left my tropical garden in Brisbane and moved to Ipswich.

It's a shame that such a pretty thing is a weed 😯

@KathyB there’s not too much behind my property. Cassias are more prominent in that corner. Do I dare put some lantana in my garden??

Birds spread the seed so a little can become a lot quickly. We had to resort to cutting/digging and then painting on blackberry poison (which I prefer to avoid) where the roots went too deep to get out. It's a weed of national significance so we thought the effort was worth it http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/pestsweeds/LantanaFactsheet.htm
