SCOTCH BROOM
Scotch broom was introduced from the Mediterranean and is an escaped garden plant in Canada. It easily invades sunny, disturbed sites such as rangelands, roadsides, and areas of recent logging. Scotch broom can increase the intensity of wildfires, obstruct sightlines along roads, and crowd out native plants that animals depend on. A mature plant can live up to 25 years and produce seeds that can survive in the soil for 30 years.
Invasive Species Council of BC
If you have Scotch broom on your property and would like it removed, the Village of Masset will be happy to assist. Please call 250-626-3995 weekdays from 9 am to 4 pm.
