Plants in St. Helena

Every plant-lover visiting the Czech villages in Banat will surely notice that on the village square and around the roads, there are plants that are dying out in Central European towns. There are still species that grow on Carpathian wetlands or on saline, mineral-rich soils fertilised by poultry excrement.

What should also be pointed out about the flora in different parts of the Czech villages is the presence of species growing naturally on stony or steppe slopes, on areas between fields and on dry meadows around the villages. It is as if these inconspicuous parts of the original nature still remain with people, even though entire village has been gradually transformed into a human settlement. It is very important to preserve the influence of nature here in the village because living in nature and with nature around you is certainly something to be cherished.
