REMOVAL OF OCHNA (aka MICKEY MOUSE PLANT)
Ochna (Ochna serrulata) Native to southern Africa, is a significant environmental weed in Queensland and New South Wales, and is regarded as a potential environmental weed or "sleeper weed" in other parts of Australia.
This plant reproduces mainly by seed. Its brightly coloured fruit are readily eaten and dispersed by birds and other animals. They may also be dispersed in dumped garden waste.
Two small Ochna plants were found within the Charles & Motee Rogers Reserve, and were quickly removed during our November working bee.
