About Drop In: Practical Conservation (Himalayan Balsam)

Listed Under Voluntary Events / Family and Kids Events / Nature Events / Outdoor Events

Himalayan Balsam is an invasive plant species that grows vigourously along banks and riversides, shading other native plant species out. During winter it dies back leaving bare ground which is vulnerable to erosion, which can negatively affect habitats along the lochshore, such as spawning fish beds and ground nesting bird sites.

Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.

All information (whether in text or photographs) is supplied in good faith but should not be relied upon as being a statement of representation or fact.
