Great. This looks like it is in a more permanent water flow than the sightings at Bolaro.

The main patch on Isaacs Ridge Oxypetalum coeruleum (Tweedia or Southern Star) is nowhere near a track. I am surprised the infestation on Hindmarsh Drive near Tamar Street has not moved into Mugga Mugga; it is one metre from the edge of the road so the seeds could be picked up by any passing vehicle and travel anywhere.

Thanks Peter, have amended the location. Pretty sure this weed was brought into the ACT via stock and/or hay transferred to Red Hill from northern NSW, I have removed hundreds from Red Hill and although not forming monocultures is a persistent weed and very hard to get rid of in rocky places once established. So I strongly support and thank you for your efforts on Cooleman Ridge. I think it has been moved around the ACT by infrastructure and possibly park staff vehicles moving from infected areas as it does seem to be first recorded at new locations as established next to vehicle tracks.
