10 Sydenham Society News • Summer 2016 Japanese knotweed Japanese knotweed (Latin name Fallopia japonica), originates from East Asia. The plant arrived in Britain in the 19th century as an ornamental plant and one that could be fed to cattle. It is not poisonous or harmful to human health. However it can be a serious pest because of its rapid growth, resilience and its strong root system known to damage tarmac, paving and buildings. Colonising wild and neglected spaces, it can be found in parks, cemeteries and along river banks, and its dense stems can significantly impact biodiversity.

planting good old-fashioned rhubarb? For starters, you don’t need to plant knotweed (in fact, it is illegal to do so). Picking it just as its young shoots reach 10-15cm high could be an excellent way to control its spread in small gardens, meaning you get to eat the tenderest, most succulent shoots while attacking the plant at the most vulnerable stage of its growth cycle. Even the most vigorous invasives won’t be able to handle relentless predation for pie. As with all foraging, do make sure you harvest only from plants that you know have not been treated with herbicides, and never from land that may be contaminated (it does love to pop up on industrial sites and wasteland.) Japanese knotweed even handily comes packed with resveratrol, a much-hyped antioxidant found in grapes that some early studies suggest could have cholesterol-lowering, nerve- In appearance, the hollow stems can be mistaken for bamboo protecting and even anti-tumour effects.

GREAT NORTH WOOD Stretching from Deptford in the north to Croydon in the south, the Great North Wood was a vast tract of woodland and wooded commons. The wood was largely managed through coppicing, an ancient sustainable way of harvesting wood, which allowed it to thrive for centuries. As the industrial revolution transformed traditional woodland industries the value of woodland lessened, paving the way for destruction and urbanisation. Today the Great North Wood lives on in isolated fragments of woodland scattered across its original footprint. Key sites include Sydenham Hill Wood, Dulwich Woods, One Tree Hill, Beaulieu local people in efforts to manage woodland for wildlife. The Heights and Long Lane Wood.

Sydenham High Street Happenings The bunnies were out again in Sydenham High Street on Easter Saturday. They were accompanied as usual by a throng of excited children proudly parading the Easter bonnets that they had made at the craft workshop. They hopped and skipped up and down the road eagerly foraging for mini eggs from the traders who, generous as ever, handed over an array of goodies. The number of children that turned up to take their turn and create a beautifully decorated bonnet amazed the small team of organisers. We gave out over sixty bonnets and then we ran out! We have to thank Jenny at Here for Good who improvised by providing the material to make some crowns, so that no child was disappointed. We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who took part in this event, which is growing annually and continues to add to the High Street’s fun filled buzz. Heather Mallinder
