Appendix 13 - Planting guides
IntroductionThe table in this appendix identifies suitable indigenous species for planting in the following situations:
• locations where fire resistant plants are required
• effluent disposal fields
• erosion control and bank stabilisation
• coastal margins
• stream margins
• wetlands.
The figures following the table show how different plant species can be grouped in particular situations.
Note: Users of this guide are encouraged to refer to the following publications and websites for detailed guidance on planting. The Landcare Research plant species selector is highly recommended.
Lawn grass can be appropriate for planting in effluent disposal fields, depending on the moisture content of the disposal field and the species of the grass planted.
