Are you looking to undertake a large-scale landscaping or restoration project? Look no further than The Treehouse Horticulture. We specialise in contract growing native plants for large council and farm projects across New Zealand.
With our state-of-the-art facilities and expert team, we can meet the demands of even the most ambitious projects. Our specialist machinery and climate control systems ensure that our plants are grown to the highest standards, ready to thrive in their new environment.
From riparian plantings to regenerative restoration, or just a few natives to brighten up your garden, we have the experience and capability to handle projects of any size. Partner with us for your next project and let us help you create landscapes that are not only beautiful but also sustainable and ecologically beneficial.
ecological restoration
Riparian planting
Riparian planting in New Zealand, offers a range of environmental, ecological, and economic benefits: Overall, riparian planting plays a crucial role in enhancing the health and resilience of waterways and ecosystems, making it a valuable investment in the region’s environmental future.
Riparian vegetation acts as a buffer, filtering pollutants such as sediment, nutrients, and chemicals from runoff before they enter waterways. This helps improve water quality for aquatic life and human use.
The roots of riparian plants help stabilize soil along riverbanks and streams, reducing erosion and sedimentation in waterways.
Riparian areas provide important habitat for a variety of native plants and animals, including birds, fish, and insects. Planting native species enhances biodiversity and supports ecosystem health.
Riparian vegetation can help reduce the impact of flooding by absorbing and slowing floodwaters, reducing the risk of damage to property and infrastructure.
Riparian plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in their biomass and soil, helping to mitigate climate change.
Riparian plantings can enhance the visual appeal of waterways and provide opportunities for recreational activities such as fishing, birdwatching, and hiking.
Native regeneration
Regenerative planting
Regenerative planting with New Zealand natives, offers several benefits:
Overall, regenerative planting can help improve land sustainability, resilience, and profitability while also benefiting the wider environment and community.
Overall, regenerative planting can help improve land sustainability, resilience, and profitability while also benefiting the wider environment and community.
Planting cover crops and native species can improve soil health by increasing organic matter, enhancing soil structure, and reducing erosion.
Regenerative planting can help restore and enhance biodiversity on farms, providing habitat for native plants and animals.
By reducing erosion and runoff, regenerative planting can improve water quality in streams and rivers, benefiting aquatic ecosystems and reducing the need for costly water treatment.
Regenerative planting practices, such as agroforestry and diverse cropping systems, can help farms adapt to and mitigate climate change by increasing resilience to extreme weather events and sequestering carbon in soils and vegetation.
Regenerative planting can lead to cost savings for farmers by reducing the need for chemical inputs, improving soil fertility, and providing additional revenue streams through ecosystem services or alternative crops.
Your project may be eligible for funding depending on the scale of your plans. Funding may be provided by a range of organisations, from local councils, DOC, to private funding groups and more. This reduces the cost to you and your project can move forward, keeping more money in your back pocket.
The root structure of various native plants help stabilise soil. Tree roots bind soil and help mitigate soil erosion, but some species are better at it than others. Poplars and willows are commonly used in pastoral hill country to mitigate landslide erosion on hill slopes.
New methods of erosion control using Nz natives has had great results in the Hawkes Bay. Look into the Te Mata method for inspiration.
