Tzaneen: trees, weather and gardens
Tzaneen sits in a warm, green valley below the escarpment, surrounded by orchards and plantations. Mango, avocado, litchi, macadamia, banana and citrus farms run along the Letaba River valley, and pine and gum plantations climb the hills towards Haenertsburg and Magoebaskloof. In town, gardens grow fast, with figs, palms, jacarandas and flamboyants. Heavy summer rain and humidity drive quick regrowth, and storms can bring down shallow-rooted trees on wet ground. Farmers ask for old orchard blocks to be removed and windbreaks cut back, homeowners for crown work and palm cleaning, and plantation edges for trees threatening houses and roads.
