There are 50 seedlings per box.
Please indicate the species you’d like to
order by placing the number of boxes in
the highlighted column.
If you are requesting a volunteer grower
you may only select species from the top
section of the species list. You may select
from both sections if you are growing
your own.
You may order ½ boxes, but if you choose
a volunteer grower the maximum number
of ½ boxes is 2 boxes (4 species). There are
no limits if you grow your own.
If you would like to select species from
alternative zones, place a separate
seedling order for each zone.
All the species listed will provide wildlife
habitat value.
If there are species you would like to order
that are not found on the list, enquire to
see if our Nursery can grow them for you
(fees apply).

LETS LOOK AT WHY YOU ARE PLANTING
It’s important to consider why you want to plant when placing your order. This will help you
choose the right plants and plan your revegetation project effectively.
Planting for biodiversity?
•
What is missing that could help wildlife on your property? Choose shrubs and groundcovers as well as
trees – a diverse mix of species is best. A healthy understorey can support a balanced community of
insects and birds which will control harmful insects as well as manage weeds and risks to soil.
•
Bigger areas are better for wildlife than smaller ones. Shape is critical; wide areas provide a greater
buffer than long narrow areas.
•
Try to put back what was there. Look at nearby patches of similar remnant vegetation to see which
plants grow where and at what density. There are often more understorey species than trees in healthy
native remnants.
•
Link your project to other efforts on your property, district, or region for the greatest impact.
Site Visits

your local NRM or one
of our TFL Works team
members can provide
a quote for a site
management plan.
Or planting for a special purpose?
Windbreaks
Windbreaks work by lessening the force of the wind.
For best results, plant windbreaks at right angles to the
direction of the wind you are protecting against. Crops
are generally worst affected by hot, drying northerly
winds while livestock are at risk from cold winds and
rain often from the south or south-west.
Height and Length
The taller the windbreak, the larger the area it protects (see
figure 1). Planting understorey in the break will fill gaps and
help maintain the health of larger plantings long-term.
Windbreaks are most effective when they extend unbroken
at least 12 times longer than the mature height of the planted
trees. If the windbreak is too short, wind can deflect at high
speed into the area you are trying to protect.
Wind direction
Full wind strength (w)
Sheltered distance behind windbreak (multiples of tree height)
Figure 1: A properly designed windbreak provides shelter up
to 25 times its height downwind and 5 times its height upwind.
Tree Spacing and Gaps
Optimum tree spacing will be determined by the plants
selected and factors such as climate and soil. Allow access for
weed control and maintenance. Understorey plants should be
planted closer together than larger trees.
Gaps are required for gates and tracks but to minimise the
funnelling effect angle the gap at about 45 degrees to the
prevailing wind or plant a few short trees or shrubs on either
side of the gate or track.
Number of Rows
Windbreaks of three rows are effective for most farm situations,
and less affected by gaps caused by missing trees. Avoid single
row windbreaks.
Salinity
Salinity degrades land through an increase in salt
concentrations in the environment, watercourses or soil. One of
the best ways to combat salinity is to plant salt-tolerant deeprooted trees and shrubs to take up excess saline water.
Time to recover
As a first step, fence off the site, remove stock, and then leave
the site like this for as long as possible before planting. This
allows it to recover and often native plants will self seed or
establish, saving you time and effort.
Position
Begin planting native trees and shrubs in the water recharge
area rather than directly into the salty scald. Here the plants will
begin to use excess water, reducing the groundwater recharge.
Gradually it may be possible to plant into the scalded area once
it has stabilised.
Other production benefits
It is possible to revegetate to combat salinity and produce a
financial or useful crop such as woodlots, fodder, saltbush, cut
flowers and bush food. Before investing in an alternative long
term crop, it is important to prepare a plan and seek advice
from local NRM or Primary Industry Officers.
