Yes I've noticed Brown Argos associating with Fleabane at Gib and not just in a dry year like this year. On our Transect we expect to find Brown Argos when we reach the only patch of Fleabane. Fleabane is also flowering about 3 weeks earlier on average now than 15 years ago. I'm going to plant Fleabane in my garden for next year!
