Landcare Learnings Recap – Spotlight on Cacti with Debi Bancroft

Landcare Learnings Recap – Spotlight on Cacti with Debi Bancroft

On Tuesday night, May 20, the Tamworth Regional Landcare Association (TRLA) hosted another great Landcare Learnings session – this time with special guest Debi Bancroft, Harrisia Cactus Project Officer.

Debi delivered a fascinating and informative talk on invasive cacti in Australia, shedding light on a growing issue many of us might not know much about. Did you know there are no native cacti species in Australia? Every cactus you see here has been introduced – and some have become serious threats to our landscapes.

Deb, who came armed with (safely contained!) cactus samples, walked us through: How to spot and identify invasive cacti Which emerging cactus species to keep an eye on The origins and spread of these plants across Australia Why reporting and early action is essential Our responsibilities as landholders and community members to prevent their spread

Her engaging and practical presentation left everyone better equipped to recognise, report, and respond to cactus incursions.

A huge thank you to Debi for sharing her knowledge – and to everyone who joined us for another evening of learning and connection.
