Polokwane notes on felling & removal
New stands in Bendor and towards Ga-Mothapo often hold marula and acacia, and a marula needs a licence before it can be cut, so a developer should plan for that early. In Flora Park and Fauna Park, old gums and pepper trees over roofs usually come down in sections. Ask about stump grinding where paving or foundations follow.
What grows around Polokwane
Polokwane stands on a high, dry plateau, and the bushveld reaches right into town. Marula, which is protected, grows on open land and in older yards, along with acacias, karee and wild seringa. Planted gardens carry jacarandas, pepper trees, bluegums and syringas, and syringa spreads easily into open land and stream banks. Rain comes in summer storms, and winters are dry and mild with little frost. The city is growing fast, so developers often need stands cleared, while homeowners want big trees off roofs and walls. Because marula and some other local trees are protected, check before clearing indigenous bush, and check the alien listing for syringa and gums.
The requests we see from Polokwane usually come from:
- Homeowners: a tree lifting paving or overhanging the roof removed with the stump and wood cleared
- Developers and building sites: trees on a building footprint removed with stumps and roots cleared for foundations
- Businesses and commercial property: trees damaging parking areas or buildings removed with minimal disruption to trading hours
