After discussions with their local ‘Land for Wildlife’ officer, Cath and Brad Miller applied for, and secured, Landcare 25th Anniversary funding for a revegetation project/wildlife corridor at the northwest of the property.
The area is adjacent to an endanged ironstone plant community and declared rare flora (DRF) plant, Grevillea brachystylis spp grandis is known to occur nearby. The area is just over 2 hectares and over 2500 indigenous trees and shrubs were planted.
The area was ripped on contour in May 2015, fenced in June and planted in July 2015. They also carried out some infill planting in July 2016.
The photo shows the planting at 18 months illustrating the range of species, a good survival rate and the overall vigour of the plants. The sheok is over 2m tall.
