Why Himalayan balsam is a problem in Nantyglo
On Nantyglo properties, Himalayan balsam fires seed up to seven metres, smothers native bankside vegetation and leaves bare soil that erodes into watercourses each winter. Nantyglo is at the head of the Ebbw Fach valley in Blaenau Gwent, near the Heads of the Valleys road.
