Germiston: trees, weather and gardens
Germiston is a rail and industrial town at the western edge of the East Rand, and its trees reflect that. Factories and yards in Wadeville, Isando and Dinwiddie have boundary rows of gums and pines that grow over fences, roofs and power lines. Older residential areas such as Primrose, Lambton and Elsburg have jacarandas, plane trees and syringas on small stands. Bedfordview, on the hill to the north, has large gardens with mature oaks and pines. Summer thunderstorms with hail cross the open East Rand quickly. Businesses ask for boundary trees to be cut back or felled, homeowners want trimming and stump grinding, and Bedfordview owners want big trees reduced.
The requests we see from Germiston usually come from:
- Businesses and commercial property: safety kit for grounds staff to meet workplace safety duties
- Homeowners: a helmet set and chaps for cutting up fallen branches and braai wood
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: kitting out the maintenance team who handle storm clean-up in the complex
