Native Planting
We specialise in riparian planting, restoring wetlands and repurposing underused, marginal land into lush landscapes. We use native, locally sourced plants from our region. Riparian Developments manage every step of the planting process, from planning to planting and on-going management. Our work with local farmers and landowners supports natural habitats, enhances the health and stability of soil and creates corridors for birdlife and other native species. Our projects create thriving ecosystems that link together, vastly improving our surrounding nature.
The Planting Process
Planning
Following an initial visit to the site, we will tailor a custom planting strategy. This includes identifying plant species, placement, density, a project timeline, and providing an accurate cost estimate.
Funding Assistance
There is a possibility your planting project is eligible for funding. Through our network, we can pinpoint funding opportunities and offer assistance in the application process.
Enabling Works
Whatever the plan may be for your area of land, there is always a lot of enabling work required. We clear, contour and bench land prior to fencing, ensuring planted areas meet the required fencing standards.
Spot Spraying
Spot spraying is a targeted weed spraying method, critical to supporting young plants by keeping the surrounding area clear from weeds. We hand spray spots prior to planting.
Native Planting
We supply and plant native species as per your specialised planting plan. We are knowledgable about native plants and will guide you on what species best suit the environment you're planting.
Post Planting Management
It is important to have a release spraying plan. By reducing the amount of competing grasses and weeds in the same space, new plants will continually grow and establish without being smothered by faster growing weeds.
