Kikuyu margin management 2018

A number of observations have been made specific to the management of the kikuyu invasion of the forest and planting margins generally in Eskdale Reserve's Upper Forest margin, and documenting the management of these margins in Gahnia Grove.

For clarity and detailed ongoing monitoring, these have been divided into (in order of development over time - ie work on CHF Bank and Flame Tree Bank was only begun in November 2018) the mown kikuyu margins of:

Also being hand-weeded, hopefully to be formally included in the area for suspension of edging services, is the Annexe canopy/Top Clearing margin of mixed exotic grasses incl. kikuyu:
