wild leucaena

A grumble...gee I've had it with old-fashioned, highly fertile leucaena on the acreage. 20 plus years ago my mother, with the best intentions, planted 3 trees near the house, and we've been chasing seedlings ever since. Only get limited time there now and way too much of it is spent cutting bushes and carefully disposing of seed pods. The property is destocked now so no help from animals trimming. I had every intention of basal bark spraying this visit with Access but it didn't happen. Thanks for listening, I'm sure I feel better! Rose.

I agree Rose, wherever they are planted they seem to be escaping through the fences and along the waterways they will be a problem in the future.
Trouble is they are good cattle feed when used correctly.
