This is a time-consuming and delicate job, designed to have the least possible impact on the existing peatbog. Once the Kahili Ginger has been removed, the outbreaks will be monitored to assess the resurgence of the invasive species and the regenerative capacity of the native vegetation.<\/p>\n<p><img
