    Wandle Invasive Species Action Plan This document outlines the shared Aims for the five key invasive non-native plants which have become established and widespread on the River Wandle: Himalayan balsam, Japanese knotweed, giant hogweed, floating pennywort and parrots feather. The Aims and Approaches have been agreed as part of the Wandle Invasive Species Project which was funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund through the Living Wandle Landscape Partnership. More information on the biology, ecology and control of these species can be found in the Wandle Invasive Species Management Plan which you can download from the Wandle Trust website. FLOATING GIANT HIMALAYAN JAPANESE PARROTS PENNYWORT HOGWEED BALSAM KNOTWEED FEATHER INNS distribution on the Wandle by species 1 Floating Pennywort (FPW) Aims for the Wandle: ° Maintain Ravensbury Park Lake and Watermeads Backwater as open water habitats ° Maintain FPW at manageable levels (restricted, small, single layered rafts) along the river Approach: FPW is well established in the Wandle with the source in Sutton and a significant stronghold at Morden Hall Park.
