Ladysmith notes on felling & removal
In town, removals often involve old syringas, pepper trees and gums in gardens around the centre and Steadville, taken down in sections near roofs. On farms towards Elandslaagte and Roosboom, bush clearing for grazing and felling of dying gum windbreaks are common. Thorn trees are slow-growing indigenous trees, so check whether they are protected before cutting. Syringa stumps resprout strongly, which makes grinding or treating the stump important.
Ladysmith: trees, weather and gardens
Ladysmith sits on the Klip River in the hot, dry thornveld below the Drakensberg, where summers bring sudden storms and winters are cold and dry. Older parts of town have big jacarandas, syringas, pepper trees and bluegums planted long ago, and the surrounding farms carry gum windbreaks and acacia thorn bush. Floods along the river have shaped the town, and trees on the banks can be undercut and start to lean. Work is a mix of town gardens, farm windbreaks and bush clearing for grazing. Some indigenous trees in the district may be protected, and syringa and gums are listed invaders in many places, so check the listing for your tree and area before acting.
