1. Regular deep watering

Large leafy trees can transpire around 200L of water per day, so they need to be watered during prolonged drought periods. Using slow-decomposing forest mulch will also help to conserve the moisture in the soil and protect the root zone from compaction.

2. Keep vines and climbers away from tree bark

Climbing plants wrap around a tree and build up moisture and debris close to the trees trunk. This can cause fungal infection, leading to the tree being destroyed.

3. Protect roots from damage

Ensuring you keep the root zone of your trees protected can be imperative in ensuring their future.  Tree roots need to breath too, so avoid compacting the soil around the base of trees with cars or foot traffic.

4. Check for infection

Splitting or oozing bark and honey-coloured mushrooms at the base of the tree can all indicate a fungal infection. Check the canopy and base of your trees to ensure any issues are picked up and treated before it is too late.

Australian native plants are also not just beautiful to look at, but also an integral part of the native landscape, providing habitat and food for local native animals and birds. They also provide other environmental benefits such as preventing soil erosion, combating salinity, saving endangered animals and providing clean fresh air.

Some of our favourite Australian native trees are:

Golden Wattle – Because Golden Wattle is the floral emblem of Australia, it is very recognisable to most Australians. It can grow between 2 and 8 metres tall and also has a certain degree of frost tolerance.

Eucalyptus – Widely associated with Australia and koalas, eucalyptus can be found in both shrub and tree form all over Australia.

Moreton Bay Fig – A large native tree growing up to 60 metres in height and known for its large leaves. Moreton Bay Fig is a rainforest tree that can be found on the east coast of Australia.

Grevillia – A colourful, bird attracting plant that is popular all over Australia. Grivillia has over 360 species and can grow anywhere between 50 centimetres and 35 metres tall.
