Remnant Rainforest Area

site before revegetationsite after revegetation

 

The Cubberla Creek Revegetation Group (CCRG) was inspired by the existence of a small area of remnant rainforest in the park off Sutling Street.  The photograph (above left) shows the large Tallowood tree (Eucalyptus microcorys) in the foreground and in the background a small cluster of rainforest species.  This is how the site appeared in 1993 – before bush regeneration work started. 

 

After working on this site - clearing weeds, mulching, replanting and allowing natural revegetation to take place, the area was photographed in 2002 (nine years after we commencement of bush care work here).  This image (above right) shows the dense growth of plantings and naturally regenerated species that has taken place over that period.
