For the past few weeks, our Ranger and her conserv For the past few weeks, our Ranger and her conservation volunteers have been working hard to eradicate the Himalayan balsam in the park through a technique commonly nicknamed as “Balsam Bashing”! Himalayan balsam is a non-native, invasive plant species which outcompetes our native ground flora. It has spread throughout the park over the past year as the pandemic prevented us from carrying out the work. The plants are pulled up by their roots and discarded into piles, where they breakdown and feed nutrients back into the soil. Rachel says that the volunteers have done an amazing job and is very pleased with the progress made. “This will mean that there should be less balsam to remove next year and then hopefully, after a couple more years of management, there will be a big reduction in Himalayan balsam growth in the park, which will allow our native ground flora to thrive.” Now that the Balsam Bashing is over for this year, volunteer sessions will be focusing on other aspects of park management and conservation. Rachel’s next session will be Tuesday 14th Sep. We also have a session every second Saturday of the month. If you would like to join in, get in touch by emailing butepark@cardiff.gov.uk. 🍀🌳🌱🥾🍀🌳 #ButePark #Cardiff #WorkingForCardiff #Lovewhereyoulive #LoveButePark #ButeParkRanger
