The weeds are divided into four colour-coded groups based on their life form - grasses, herbs, vines and shrubs or trees. Within each group, the weeds are listed alphabetically by their botanical name.
A brief description of the herbicides used, a glossary and an index are included. The dormancy associated with both Cape tulip species can lead to disappointment with control efforts. If a good kill is achieved in a year when many plants are dormant, there may be many more plants present the following season.
Ask your agribusiness consultant, local Biosecurity Officer or landcare coordinator for assistance in preparing a weed management plan. Practise good biosecurity to avoid introducing Cape tulip to your property and to avoid poisoning livestock. Take particular care to buy hay that does not contain Cape tulip or other unwanted weeds.
It can be an offence to sell or transport hay or other materials containing declared pests - offences can be reported to the nearest office of the Department of Agriculture and Food, Western Australia. Do not allow contractors with dirty machinery to work on your property - if necessary provide a wash-down area so they can clean their equipment. If you already have Cape tulip, do not allow it to spread from your property.
Learn and map where infestations are located to avoid spreading Cape tulip by cultivation. Include weed infestations in farm mapping and planning. If you can, always work from clean to dirty areas. Wash down machinery before moving it to clean areas, as Cape tulip and many other weeds are known to spread in soil.
Use effective control techniques, including herbicides, to reduce the size of Cape tulip infestations. Some landholders have expressed concern about using 'toxic' chemicals on pastures; however, remember that Cape tulip can be deadly to livestock and the longer its control is delayed, the more it will spread.
Mail order catalogues may be convenient but some offer toxic weeds for sale such as chincherinchee Ornithogalum thyrsoides. If you have questions about suitable garden plants, your local landcare or catchment group may be able to provide advice.
Articles on weedy bulbs and garden plants are available on this website, or from the Pest and Disease Information Service. Accredited nurseries should also be able to provide advice.
