Kahikatea planting
In line with our
planting plan to develop a predominately Kahikatea wetland forest in the gully
floor with Astelia grandis dominating
the understory we planted 45 kahikatea in the wet pond area at the back of
Sexton Road. This brings the total kahikatea planted to over 150. This does not
sound that many but when you take into account that they are canopy trees
planted 5 metres apart and that the wet gully floor is only part of the total
area of the reserve then it is significant.
