  1. What a great cluster. Such a pity about it's weed status. Many fear it is displacing locals.
    Recently found in Tasmania also unfortunately.

    1. We're just going to have to accept this one.
      Eventually we will call it an australian species like the monarch butterfly or the fly agaric.
