Hypericum androsaemum
Originally from Europe, the species was introduced to NZ, where it was recognised as a pasture weed as early as 1955.
Yeah it has healing properties, but still, for NZ, it's a worthless weed, mostly because it spreads in native forests (and certainly because it is an introduced species)
Quite attractive. Doesn't sound too invasive and has some 'healing' properties possibly.
