Spring in the Catchment
- Map Montpellier broom infestations on your property while the yellow flowers are blooming. This will help with your control program over the Summer months.
- Start woody weed control programs on English and Montpellier broom, as they have now reached a suitable time for herbicide control through foliar spraying. Hand pulling and cut & swab methods can be employed all year round.
- Take a wildflower walk and discover the local plants of your area. Join us on the next Cluster Walk in September!
- Keep up the weed control around new revegetation sites. Competition for water over Summer will be fierce this year, so give your plants the best chance of survival by controlling aggressive perennial grasses (either by slashing or spraying), and preparing for hand watering over Summer.
- Watsonia in bushland areas can be controlled by hand pulling, careful spot spraying or using the “Tongs of Death”. Using bushcare principles, start in your least weedy areas first, and aim to work into the denser infestations.
