Looking on the big screen, it is a hard see capsule of a kind.

It comes down to capacity https://canberra.naturemapr.org/users/8081, just keeping on top of the 1000s of privets stretches parkcare capacity and some of us are getting old and tired.... the government pays for planting invasives and than generously offers to compete for grants to remove those that invade the reserves; this is not sustainable! Plus those spread by birds on public land other than nature reserves are protected under the Urban Forest Act.

I imagine the area is mowed, thus keeping the suckers at bay (and probably causing them too). Suckering is not a problem in nature reserves yet; all will be well if volunteers keep spotting and removing plants :-)

Can be proofed by lifting up; young suckers are still attached to parent plant. I don't think the managers of this "forest" mind probing; they want to keep the NorthKorean army pattern of squares and rows which would be ruined by suckering plants.
