The work to conserve native species continues to progress! This time, the action took place at Fajã dos Cubres, on the island of São Jorge, where 928 individuals of native species were planted, produced by the Faial Botanic Garden under action C3.2 – In-situ conservation of the LIFE IP AZORES NATURA project.

The species reinforced were:

– Myosotis maritima – 87 plants

– Crithmum maritimum – 233 plants

– Scabiosa nitens – 68 plants

– Lotus azoricus – 138 plants

– Euphorbia azorica – 6 plants

– Rumex azoricus – 396 plants

Before planting, the land was prepared by a team from the Environment and Climate Action Service on the island of São Jorge, ensuring ideal conditions for the intervention’s success.

The team will now monitor all the newly introduced plants to track their evolution in the field.
