This beloved Czech plant is strictly forbidden throughout Europe

Although this plant is widespread after virtually the whole Czech Republic, it is banned in most other European countries. See which it is and why it was so many regulations.

Nature in the Czech Republic is beautiful. But there is also one plant that is practically banned throughout Europe. And it’s not because she is poisonous. It may seem to you that it is very similar to a poppy situation. Although poppy in Central Europe is essentially an integral part of traditional cuisine, many other places are banned from consuming for opium. So what about the non -concern?

Non -applied

Non -concerned is a widespread plant in the Czech Republic, but originally it is from the Himalayas, from which it came to us in the 19th century as an ornamental and honey plant. You can find it primarily along large rivers. In other European countries, however, its cultivation is forbidden and is trying to reduce its spread. What is it?

It has been shown that this ornamental and honey -like plant brings trouble rather than benefits. It is very very that represents costly problems for landscape management and maintenance. Its invasiveness also threatens biodiversity as it suppresses the native species. It is a really strong competitor, as it can create continuous stands that subsequently prevent the growth of the original plants.

By competing for a place with other original plants, and unfortunately very often wins, the species composition of plant communities and a reduction in biodiversity is flashed, which has a negative effect on the ecosystem. Its spread is very simple. The non -concerned creates a large number of capsules that crawl. So the seeds fire and this shot can have several meters. When they fall into the water, the water takes them a few kilometers away, so the non -concerned spread over long distances.

What are the regulations?

Therefore, the reasons why the non -concerned is forbidden in many European countries are clear. But what are the specific regulations? Of course, the first is to reduce spread in places where the non -concerned has not yet settled, as well as the removal of this invasive plant in naturally valuable locations.

The non -concerns are then removed manually, either by pulling or digging. People also try to prevent its production of seeds and subsequent transport on the water. So if you find a non -concern for example in your garden, be careful and ideally
