Rustenburg notes on tree care & clean-up
Pruning in Waterfall East and Protea Park is mostly crown lifting over driveways and thinning jacarandas. Thorn trees need careful work, as the thorns make clean-up slow and refuse loads bulky. Syringas along the Hex River and on the edge of Kgaswane Mountain Reserve are a common invader target. Thorn wood is prized as braai wood when dry.
What grows around Rustenburg
Rustenburg lies at the foot of the Magaliesberg, where bushveld meets town. Indigenous thorn trees, karee, wild olive and buffalo thorn grow on the slopes and on smallholdings, while gardens in the suburbs carry jacarandas, bluegums, pepper trees and big syringas. The platinum belt around the town has brought fast building, and developers often need stands cleared. Summers are hot with afternoon thunderstorms and lightning off the mountain, and winters are dry and mild. The work asked for most is removing invaders and oversized garden trees, clearing bush on new stands, and lifting crowns off roofs. Mining companies and housing developments ask for larger jobs. Check whether indigenous trees on your land are protected first.
The requests we see from Rustenburg usually come from:
- Homeowners: lifting crowns off roofs and gutters and cutting back branches over the pool
- Developers and building sites: cutting back trees that will stay on a stand so building work can go on
- Businesses and commercial property: trimming car park and frontage trees so signage, lights and cameras stay clear
