We work on the first and third Sunday of the month to maintain the old Wildflower Garden and prevent introduced species getting into the greater Black Hill Conservation Park.
This time however, we will go hunting for Ornithogalum thyrsoides. We will enter the park from Everest Ave and head up the Ghost Tree Gully to the Link trail where we know there is an outbreak of Ornithogalum. We can work on Boneseed and African Daisy while we are there.
Ornithoglaum thyrsoides is an invasive and persistent weed that has colonised large areas of Horsnell Gully and Giles conservation parks. We don't want to see it getting hold in Black Hill Conservation Park.
Our events are weather dependant. One sever or catastrophic fire risk days, our events are automatically cancelled.
We may also cancel due to rain or extreme winds, both of which put volunteers at risk.
Please let us know if you are coming so we have sufficient equipment for you.
