Linton says... Thanks for your identification, didn't know that they could grow so big. It's strange that this species is growing in a park where the local council is responsible for the plantings and maintenance of the trees there. It makes you wonder if their gardeners are aware of it's weed status. | About the Author Linton NOBLE PARK,3174,VIC 31st October 2016 8:50pm #UserID: 2286 Posts: 994 View All Linton's Edible Fruit Trees |
jakfruit etiquette says... It may not be such a problem in that environment. The problem weeds in Nth Nsw or Nth Qld may just get by in Vic. Some tender garden plants in Vic may naturalise in warmer environments. I wonder what the problem is with this species?? These Solanums are pioneer species on disturbed sites, and Tobacco Bush S. mauritianum is considered to have some benefit in attracting fruit eating bird species, who poop out seeds of native trees to aid regeneration. | About the Author jakfruit etiquette vic 1st November 2016 9:01am #UserID: 5133 Posts: 915 View All jakfruit etiquette's Edible Fruit Trees |
