Slope stabilisation with native plants

Today saw Forktree stalwarts Ralph and Jake harvesting Plains Sedge (Carex bichenoviana) from Paul Green’s Myponga property for planting at The Forktree Project.

Paul recommended the Carex as an ideal native plant to stabilise the slope outside our native seed nursery. We are grateful as ever for his advice and support.
