Trees in Upington
Upington is an oasis on the Orange River, with vineyards, date palms and green irrigated fields in a hot, dry desert setting. Date palms line streets and farms, while river banks carry willows, karee, wild tamarisk and invaders such as mesquite. Gardens hold pepper trees, palms and gums, all of which rely on irrigation. Summers are extremely hot, and storms are short, with strong winds that can drop palm fronds and dead wood. Farmers ask for windbreak and riverbank clearing and old vine and palm removal, while homeowners want palms cleaned and pepper trees cut back. Check the alien listing for your area and whether indigenous trees are protected.
