Description: African love grass is a vigorous, clump-forming, perennial grass up to 1.5m tall. It is densely tufted with narrow leaves (harsh to touch) and usually curly at the tips. The leaves are bright green to blue-green (leaves turn bronze-red after a hard frost). Leaf margins rolled inwards and are usually hairless. It has fibrous roots, up to 50cm deep. The flower heads (panicles) are pyramid- shaped with small, white flowers. Its blackish, olive- purple seeds are attached to arching stems over 1m long.Infestations are limited to 20 active sites across the Otago region. The plant is capable of rapidly invading bare and disturbed sites. Once established, it forms dense stands and suppresses other herbaceous species. It is a prolific seeder, has low palatability for grazing animals and is difficult to detect.
Description: According to the Otago Regional Pest Management Plan all occupiers within the New Gorse and Broom Free Areas as shown on Map 2 in Appendix 3 shall eliminate all gorse infestations on the land that they occupy.This rule shall not have legal effect for the New Gorse and Broom Free Areas as shown on Map 2 in Appendix 3 until 31 October 2024.For the purpose of this rule, eliminate means the permanent preclusion of the plant’s ability to set viable seed.
Description: According to the Otago Regional Pest Management Plan all occupiers within the Gorse and Broom Free Areas as shown on Map 2 in Appendix 3 shall, eliminate all broom infestations on the land that they occupy.This is the legal extent of the Gorse and Broom Free Areas according to the 2019 Otago Regional Pest Management Plan.From 31 October 2024 the larger 'New Gorse and Broom Free Areas' apply.
Description: Site-led programmes seek to manage pests whose presence, at or nearby, threaten the values that are special to particular sites (protecting the values at the place). The sites themselves can be determined in two main ways. In the first instance, there are sites within the Otago region that have already been identified through a variety of ways at a district or local scale as having particular values, primarily non-production. In the second instance, there is opportunity for individuals or community groups to promote and pursue further sites that they consider hold values of importance to those people.Sites managed through site-led programmes may range in extent from small areas within a property to larger areas covering thousands of hectares. Likewise, their values can be threatened by individual or multiple organisms and pest management regimes specifically tailored to each site will be necessary.The Otago Regional Pest Management Plan identifies three sites that manage a range of species encompassing the geographic areas of the Otago Peninsula, West Harbour – Mt.Cargill, and Quarantine and Goat Islands (Map 3 of Appendix 3).
