  5. * "Weed management
    is Australia's most expensive land management problem – for both the environment and agriculture."

    "Recent research found that the cost of weed management made up more than three-quarters [81 per cent] of the total cost for recovering Australia's threatened species." >>

    * Gardeners, pastoralists and the horticultural industry love imported exotic flora. Some are illegal but plant retailers and hobbyists continue to sell these weeds.

    Some have "a dense shrub layer which excludes native plants, mainly on and near the coast, but it also transforms the habitat and, through that, deprives native wildlife of important resources. It's leaving future generations an immense burden because a lot of plants still have a long way to spread." >>

  6. What piece of shite to start the day on social media with. I ask you, what kind of #Grifting brainless entrepreneur would think that there is any sense in sucking up 40,000 megaliters of #water a year from an #aquifer in one of the driest parts of the land on the driest #Continent on earth to stand up an **Intensive** #horticulture business there?

    We haven’t seen anything as brainless as this since the Ord River Scheme and cotton industries up North in WA. What kind of madperson even think it is a responsible thing to do? The people behind *Future Agribusiness* are nothing but #NeoLiberal predators looking to profit while raping the land. They don’t give a toss about *Country* and the fragile *ecosystems* on land *Never Ceded* . But I do. In fact, the mojority of this society does care about the land and what is bieng done to it in the name of #NeoLiberalism and #NeoColonialism.

    Where is our *Environmental Protection Agency* in all this? Recovering from #Labor Govt death blows no doubt. There is no coming back from this kind of #pillage. Good grief, this is just insane. Here’s hoping the Courts (in reflecting the will of the broader society while adjuticating) will see true justice (in #fascist NT) applied to the benefit of all and not just a few madhats looking to cash up.

  7. #Cotoneaster #berries. They're similar to firethorn plants but are thornless with serated leaf margins. Their flowers & fruits are toxic for humans but have excellent #WildlifeValue.
    These are #larval food plants for several insects. Their flowers attract many #pollinators. Their fruits are eaten by multiple birds - blackbirds especially love eating these berries in Winter.
    It's been cultivated by landscapers for wildlife value & soil erosion prevention. It's grown in many public & private areas around here - I see it almost everywhere. Birds have spread their seeds afar.

    I don't know which variety of cotoneaster this is - there are a lot of varieties.

    Spotted at Burnside Medical Clinic parking lot.

  10. #Brugmansia 'Madame de Pompadour' (Marek Perniš, Slovakia, 2013). The flower grows the other way up, pendant. The flower-in-flower form is called "hose-in-hose" from the old use of "hose" to mean socks or stockings (think "pantyhose").

  12. #December 4, 1841
    #OTD Theodore Vogel, #German #Botanist got #Sick.
    On the #Niger #Expedition, he shared #Hardships in his #Jounal.

    "After endless #Labor, [I have] ill-conditioned #Plants. I have #Sacrificed every convenience to gain room, & overcome #Dampness of the #Ship...but w/o #Success."

    The #Mineralogist Charles Roscher tended to Ted for 13 days. On Dec 17th, Ted asked if they were set for their trip & then peacefully passed away.
