A Highway 12 junction in Ristola, S\u00e4kyl\u00e4 was renovated to increase safety. Renovations brought more green zones between the roads, and sun-exposed dry meadow habitat experiment was set up there. We sowed there, among others, field wormwood (Artemisia campestris<\/i>), birdsfoot deervetch (Lotus corniculatus<\/i>), kidneyvetch (Anthyllis vulneraria ssp. Lapponica<\/i>), great mullein (Verbascum thapsus<\/i>), clammy campion (Viscaria vulgaris<\/i>), sand pink (Dianthus arenarius subsp. borussicus<\/i>), and creeping thyme (Thymus serpyllum<\/i>) seeds. We bought the sand pink seeds from a commercial source who had the origin data of the natural population. We are also trying out propagating Cladonia<\/i> lichens on the area. Lichens may bind the sand in place and hinder other, shade-increasing vegetation from spreading into the sun-exposed dry meadow habitat. We are developing the Ristola sun-exposed dry meadow in cooperation with the Southwest Finland Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment (ELY Centre). <\/p>\n
