Himalyan Balsam is a bonnie but aggressive invasive species to Scotland and has take root in all three of our rivers. However, not for long, a bonnie group of volunteers from Nairn led by James Symonds (SISI Project Officer) led an aggressive clearance campaign on the banks of the lower River Nairn recently.
