Image study: Introduced Trees, Office of Forests Commission of Victoria

This map is designed to provide information for the public regarding which trees to plant in different areas. Many trees that the government agency recommended for planting – such as Willow and Early Black Wattle – are now considered weeds, and present major environmental problems to communities in Victoria.
