About Woody Meadow: |
Trial Woody Meadow planted by Brimbank City Council. Testing 20 species in two types of media: mineral substrate-mulch and green mulch over topsoil. High pedestrian area opposite a school so low fence required to prevent trampling. Adjoining non-Woody Meadow plots were planted at same time to create a large new naturalistic landscape across the site. |
