Milkwood Propagation Workshop Unites Greenhou...
Recently, the Raimonda Greenhouse group joined forces with our Green Futures Nursery team for an inspiring Milkwood Propagation Workshop.
Cross-Marked Grass Snake and Paterson's Curse at Grootbos
Look closely… Can you see the tiny cross-marked grass snake (also known as a whip snake or sweep slangetjie) nestled among the flowers? This little snake may be mildly venomous, but it’s not dangerous to humans and plays an important role in our ecosystem.
The vibrant purple flower it’s drawn to, however, is another story. Known as Paterson’s curse, this plant may look beautiful, but it’s a highly invasive species that poses a real threat to native vegetation.
