Pines to Natives
When Cambrilea entered the native tree growing/planting industry in 2010, it was a perfect fit with its Weed Spraying work, which was based on a passion for sustainability and the long-term future of our waterways.
At Cambrilea, our focus shifted to producing larger trees in our nursery before planting. This strategic move significantly improved the survival rate of our trees, a key benefit that our customers can now enjoy.
The impact for our customers is that within a year, our larger 1-litre pot survival rates increased to 97% over the smaller 0.5-litre forestry standard of the T28, with much lower survival rates.
See the results of our one-year growth in Forestry to Natives. With our big plants and UNIQUE SITE PREPARATION, we achieve these results in hard-to-establish pine blocks, making it possible to establish a native forestry canopy cover quickly.
