laevigata has lobbed leaves. Cockspur Hawthorn was used as a street and park planting. There used to be between 30-60 plants on Red Hill but we seem to have got rid of it.

Crataegus crus-galli

Hi Kate

It didn't seem to be planted, but they are spreading in the area. The area is quite open. I don't think that they had some fruits.

Thank you
Kumiko

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 :-)
