Revitalization of an ornamental pond in Kilsyth North, enhancing local biodiversity by replacing invasive species with native water plants, creating a harmonious habitat for both wildlife and the community.
An ornamental pond that looks beautiful and provides habitat for the local frogs.
In the beautiful leafy surrounds of Kilsyth North, the team from STEM replanted a beautifully constructed waterbody. After removing the invasive exotic lilies we were able to work our magic by planting native water species that help with local biodiversity. As usual we were excited to see all the thriving inhabitants of the area, as this shows the health of an area and we are maintaining a home and space for both humans and animal species to enjoy together. If you love lilies, we recommend planting them in a concrete pot underwater. This will help prevent these beautiful but noxious plants from spreading. Lilies are extremely invasive and detract from habitat for insects and animals by smothering the ecosystem. Please be aware of our native environments and plant with care.
