Madeira vine infestation through Obi Obi and Kidaman Creek 

Flowering time now, it’s cream flowers make it easy to notice

Madeira vine is now not restricted to Obi Obi Creek’s riparian zones, it is found along Obi Obi Rd from the junction of Obi Obi road and Baxter Creek Road to Cochrane lookout, growing on road side verges.

 It is a serious environmental weed that can degrade intact native forests and invade rural properties
