Hi Ash yes you are spot on. It isn't a declared noxious weed in QLD (at least not yet) I have a couple of forrests of it atm and many more collected seedlings ready for further use. It is a good bonsai canditate as it maintains small foliage when cultivated as bonsai and is easily collected and hard to kill.
