It is not easy knowing what plants are detrimental to the environment. Your help in removing them from your land will aid our effort to restore the natural bush in Campbells Bay.
Some are well known pest plants such as tree privet, chinese privet, moth plant, monkey apple, climbing asparagus, and pampas grass.
Others are less well known eg boneseed, euonymus
Even trickier, is knowing the ones which only recently have been spreading into the bush eg agapanthus, loquat, cherry, and phoenix palm or the “soon to be” weeds such as bangalow palms, queen of the night and many others. Bangalow palm seedlings are popping up in Centennial Park bush already, yet this plant will not be officially a pest plant until 2012 at the earliest.
If you are unsure, one of our volunteers would be happy to visit your site to advise you.
