Not too convinced, not even 100% sure this is Senecio...

Okay, just Daisies or Other Shrubs.

Def a Senecio, this is an exotic african species listed as formerly established in the ACT. Fantastic that it is back of course ;). Mike, worth removing if you are happy to.

Maybe we should change the common name of 'Dimorphotheca ecklonis (African Daisy)' to Cape Daisy. It is given both names in the ACT list of naturalised and doubtfully naturalised alien plant species. I've always called it South African daisy.
Common names can be confusing.

Okay makes sense. Thanks Ciaran, not one I'm familiar with.
