Environmental weeds of the Toowoomba Region

More and more, we are finding good local information on plants, on the internet.
This site gives us a good description of 56 of our most common weeds, with sensible advice on how to control them.

The information comes largely from John Swarbrick, who was the driving force behind the Friends of the Escarpment Parks for so many years. So we know that we’ll find practical advice based on that group’s long experience with clearing our local weeds, and restoring places of environmental value to their original state.
Co-editor is Kristie Jenkinson of the Toowoomba Regional Council's environment and weed control section.
