ID of weed please
This plant is obviously a member of the Asteraceae, but I can't find
it in my book on Australian weeds. I don't think it is a native. It grows in fairly dense stands under Casuarina trees on the flood plain of a river in a warm temperate area of inland NSW (Bathurst). It is just coming into flower now (mid summer). Associated plants are Hemlock and Bidens (Cobbler's Pegs). http://www.box.net/shared/static/0k5e2o4bo4.jpg Apologies for the rather inadequate picture of the composite flower. |

Thanks Kauhl and Peter. Bidens subalternans it certainly is. To judge
by the description, I would not care to push through the stands when they are seeding.
