Roodepoort notes on tree care & clean-up
Around Florida Lake and Kloofendal, syringas and wattle spread into open ground, and alien tree removal needs follow up because both resprout from stumps. Estates in Ruimsig and Wilgeheuwel book trimming of common area trees, often before the storm season. Pruning should be cutting just outside the branch collar, not topping. Ask for the branches to be chipped and taken away or left as mulch.
Trees in Roodepoort
Roodepoort stretches from old mining ground around Florida and Maraisburg to the ridges and estates of Ruimsig, Wilgeheuwel and Little Falls. The older side has bluegum rows on mine land and big pines in established gardens; the newer side has estates with small stands, imported garden trees and indigenous bush on the rocky ridges near the Walter Sisulu National Botanical Garden. Honeydew still has smallholdings with long gum windbreaks. Summer storms gather over the western ridges and hit here early, often with hail. Homeowners ask for trimming and felling in tight gardens, smallholders want gums cleared, and estates book trimming of common areas. Check whether trees on ridge stands are indigenous and protected before cutting.
The requests we see from Roodepoort usually come from:
- Homeowners: deciding whether a big old tree near the house can stay or must come down
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: written tree surveys for body corporates and estates with a yearly work plan
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: checking old windbreaks, homestead trees and orchards for decline and borers
