Weeds of the South-East is a comprehensive identification guide to weeds found in the South-East Region of Australia. This fourth edition has been updated to include recent changes in nomenclature, bringing all species and genus names in line with the current Australian Plant Census.

Beautifully illustrated, this guide is for anyone interested in the identification of pest plants and the preservation of our native flora. It is an essential tool for community land and bush care organizations, local and state government weed officers and advisers, rangers, agronomists, agriculturists, survey and identification botanists, horticulturists, landscapers and gardeners.

Features:

  • Covers weeds of agriculture, bushland, waterways, gardens, roadsides, wasteland and amenity areas, as well as new and emerging problem species.
  • Illustrated with more than 3000 photographs, including spectacular close-up shots.
  • Key features are described with relevant measurements for easier identification.
  • Comparisons are made to similar species and easily confused natives.
  • The South-East Region covers all of Victoria, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory, the southern half of New South Wales and the south-eastern section of South Australia.
