What grows around Centurion
Centurion is a city of estates. Eldoraigne, Midstream, Irene and the newer developments around Copperleaf have tight stands, shared walls and strict body corporate rules, so even a modest tree can need careful sectional work. The Hennops River runs through the middle, lined with willows, bluegums and invasive poplars that lean towards the water and fall in summer floods. Older suburbs such as Lyttelton Manor and Doringkloof have mature jacarandas, pepper trees and pines planted when stands were bigger. Thunderstorms build quickly over the ridges in the afternoon, and frost settles in the valleys. Work asked for most: trimming over roofs, removing trees before building extensions, and clearing invaders from river frontages and open plots.
The requests we see from Centurion usually come from:
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: a maintenance team saw for storm clean-up and trimming along roads and common areas
- Homeowners: cutting up fallen branches, pruning small trees and sawing braai wood in the garden
- Developers and building sites: cutting up small trees and brush when a building stand is cleared
