A native potato-flowering something? Seems to have been there a long time.

This is a high risk weed (particularly as winters in Wodonga - Albury become milder) There don't seem to be that many local records so it is perhaps one that should be eradicated,

Darn it. They'll need some decent clippers - its quite woody. Its odd that the council haven't removed them. Its right on the edge of one of the run-off ponds. Mind you some of the ponds have waterlily in them so they are probably due for some attention.
