Boat shaped garden with tea tree and two grass trees. Watercolour on rag paper. Last Saturday we made a wire corral that turned out to be boat shaped to protect the tea tree (leptospermum) from getting it’s bark gnawed by feral deer. We planted two grass trees (xanthorrhoea). They will take a long time to grow. Watercolour on paper

Clearing gorse from the bank of Payne's Creek. We Clearing gorse from the bank of Payne's Creek. We will season it to use for fire wood. Here in New South Wales, it's a prohibited weed. We discovered (pfaf.org) that In the Northern Hemisphere, gorse wood was sought after for fuel for bakers ovens . We have tried it and it does burn clean and hot so we won't need to light a burning off pile for the gorse. Some is for the fuel stove and some for the little woodfired pottery kiln. #gorse #paynescreek #medwayrivulet #wingecarribeeriver #badlandstowoodland #firewood @toniwarburtonartist @plantsforafuture #riparianzone

First day of winter, a gate to the creek bank. Mor First day of winter, a gate to the creek bank. More blackberry and gorse to clear there. Those colonial hedgerow plants had really got away here: hawthorn, privet: (large and small leafed), blackberry, and gorse and honeysuckle. Poplars and damson plums and an old apple tree do set the beginnings of a woodland scene and the Hawthorns will shade and slowly nurture a selection of native plants. A hybrid negotiation is taking form. Kangaroos like the grasses now that the impenetrable thicket of blackberry that covered the whole area has been largely cleared. #hawthorn #privet #blackberry #gorse #honeysuckle #thistle #damsonplums #apple #ausyraliannative plants #paynescreek #medwayrivulet #wingecarribeeriver #dharawalcountry #gundungurracountry #floodplain #frogsounds #waterinpaynescreek #landcare #wintergate
Pulling out privet bushes after rain. Payne's Cre Pulling out privet bushes after rain. Payne's Creek is full and the clay soil softened - a rare opportunity to pull the more established small privet plants out by the roots. If cut they re-shoot as they have remarkable vitality. We will manage the more established trees by pruning the flowers before they can form berries. We need them for shade in summer, for bird habitat and to nurse the native plants we are gradually introducing to areas now cleared of blackberry thickets. #noglyphosates #noroundup #theBradleymethod #badlandstowoodland #privet
