A field day has been organised to Peter Morris’s Matangi gully property on Saturday 13th November starting at 1.30pm. His address is 67D Fuchsia Lane which is right off Matangi Road heading south from Morrinsville Road. If it is wet it will be postponed to the following Saturday. Check our blog if in doubt.
Peter started clearing the gorse and planting natives in his 6 acre
gully 30 years ago. You get a great view from his neighbours of the classical gully slope to swamp floor planting which you normally only see diagrammatically. The photos do not do justice to the view as the camera really needed a wide angle lens.
Peter also runs a small native plant nursery so there will be an opportunity to see various stages of seed raising of a number of our native species.
Note the date in your diary.
