The cold winter has sent many of our propagators to warmer climes but work continues with preparing healthy plants for sale at the September Wildflower Weekend.
We’ve also been putting plants aside for necessary indigenous revegetation within the Anglesea Community Precinct. In consultation with the Surf Coast Shire’s Co-ordinator of Parks and Open Spaces, Jason Eales, we’ve selected appropriate plants, taking into account important factors such as shading, fire-wise characteristics, attractiveness and toughness.

Last month two very efficient Shire workers cleared the various sites of weeds, dead bushes and diseased trees and so planting of the first area at the north side of the top car park should start soon.
