This is a highly invasive shrub that we are trying to locally eradicate - looks like these plants have been here for a while - thanks for reporting - will try and get them removed

User's notes

This vigorous bunch of pretty flowering plants is a weed, sited near a creek in Lawson. - ideal for seed dispersal from the many tiny flowers.
