Thanks to Heather and Rhona from our Committee who have been working on removal of grass from the new Wildflower bed in the Park. It’s amazing how quickly the grass seems to encroach after initial removal. This will need done a few times likely until the Wildflower plugs are established and take hold.
Yellow Rattle will be seeded all around the Wildflower bed, their roots seek out roots from other plants such as grasses which they attach themselves to and begin to absorb nutrients and water from them which suppresses their growth. These will need replanted annually but should help.
