What grows around Midrand
Midrand sits between Johannesburg and Pretoria on land that was farms and smallholdings not long ago, and the trees still show it. Windbreaks of bluegums, rows of pines and old poplars along the Jukskei and its tributaries stand beside new office parks and estates. Waterfall and Carlswald are being built up fast, so developers ask for stands to be cleared, while the horse farms and plots of Kyalami and Glen Austin need gums felled away from stables and paddocks. Summer thunderstorms with lightning and hail are fierce on this open high ground, and wind takes out shallow rooted trees on newly cleared land. Check whether any indigenous tree on a development site is protected before it is removed.
Typical chainsaw hire requests in the area come from:
- Developers and building sites: cutting up small trees and brush while a site is being cleared
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: a weekend saw for the maintenance team after a storm in the complex
- Homeowners: a day to cut up a fallen branch or tree after a storm in the garden
