The Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera) comes from the Himalayas and was planted in Europe by beekeepers and hobby gardeners at the end of the 19th century because of its beautiful flowers. The plant is extremely competitive, which means that it replaces native species – and it is spreading rapidly along our waters!

If you want to help stop the spreading of the Himalayan balsam, then register for one of our actions, participation is free!
