Seasonal Growth Brings Renewed Focus on Weed Control

With the combination of frequent rain and warmer days, grass growth has taken off once again, as it does every year across the catchment. This rapid growth, while a sign of a healthy season, can quickly overwhelm young native plants if left unmanaged and will take some time to bring back under control.

Over the coming months, the focus will be on cutting and pasting invasive weed species, release spraying, and careful hand weeding around established and newly planted natives. This work is essential to reduce competition, support ongoing restoration efforts, and give native plants the best possible chance to thrive as the season progresses.
