OLG Bowmans Bush Chilean Flame Creeper Control
Removing Chilean flame creeper in Bowman’s Bush
When: Thursday 22nd January, 7-8:30 pm.
Where: Bowman’s Bush (meet on Spence Ave, access via Paterson Reserve)
What: Pulling out Chilean flame-creeper, an invasive weed.
This is done annually to keep Bowman’s Bush from being smothered. QEII would like to thank the key supporters of Bowman’s Bush - diligent local residents and Otatara Landcare Group volunteers for their weeding help for nearly two decades, Otatara Pestbusters for their predator control and Invercargill City Council for maintaining the walking track.
What to bring: Practical clothes for working in the bush off the track, gloves can be helpful. No tools or herbicide necessary. For more information contact: Jesse Bythell, QEII National Trust Regional Representative ([Enable JavaScript to view protected content], 020 400 32109).
