Add organic matter to boost nutrients in the soil and improve its water-holding capacity. Mulch will reduce evaporation. A finer mulch will break down over time to add more organic matter to the soil but may not be an option for windy sites.

Use fences and salt-tolerant trees and shrubs such as coastal banksia, coastal tea tree and the Sydney coastal wattle to block, or at least slow, the wind. These windbreaks will provide a more sheltered environment for people and create a microclimate to help protect less hardy plants.

Coastal plants like the banksia and tea tree typically have tough, leathery leaves. The leaves can also be narrow, even needle-like, or sometimes covered with fine hairs, giving them a silvery appearance. While native and indigenous plants will be well-adapted to the local climate and environment, exotics such as

rosemary, which comes from the Mediterranean, and the succulent chalksticks will also tolerate the harsh situation.

Despite the wild conditions, a coastal garden doesn’t have to be wild. Many salt-tolerant shrubs such as cushion bush, climbing saltbush and coastal rosemary can be pruned to create formal bun shapes or organic mounds. For great effect, combine these with the similarly rounded form of weathered sandstone and the contrasting angular shape of clumping plants such as knobby club-rush or flax lily.

Below is a list of plants stocked regularly at the nursery that tolerate front-line coastal conditions. Soil quality and exposure will affect the mature height of many trees and shrubs grown on the coast. On the coast, for instance, the coastal tea tree is typically bent over, with a twisted, sculptural trunk.

plants for coastal gardensSandy soils and strong, often salt-laden winds are a dual challenge for seafront gardens, but with a little ingenuity you can still have an interesting and attractive display.

Bradley sisters

PAGE 3

Being misunderstood has a long history in bush regeneration, going right back to the pioneering Bradley sisters, who were often labelled as eccentrics when they began developing their theories on Sydney’s North Shore in the 1960s.

Joan and Eileen Bradley literally stumbled into bush regeneration as they walked their dogs on Bradleys Head (no relation). As they walked they would pull out weeds, and eventually noticed the bush naturally regenerating.

The Bradley method of weed control was built on the three core principles outlined in Joan Bradley’s book, Bringing Back the Bush:

1. Work outwards from good bush areas towards areas of weed.

2. Make minimal disturbance to the environment.

3. Do not over-clear.

In a tone that would become all too familiar to her followers, she warned: ‘You must not deviate from any of the principles. We cannot stress this enough.’

This was the beginning of a movement that today has thousands of people around Australia practising bush regeneration as either volunteers or paid workers. Early in my research for a documentary on the history of bush regenerators, I assumed that the Bradley sisters were the first, but I was wrong.

Back in the dust-bowl years of the 1930s, naturalist Albert Morris made an interesting discovery at Broken Hill, where houses had been buried in sand. When the town common was fenced off to exclude goats, sheep and cows, the land recovered naturally. It was a huge success, but Morris, unlike Joan Bradley, wasn’t a skilled publicist, and it wasn’t until the great green awakening of the ‘60s and ‘70s that bush regeneration took off.

So after half a decade of popular bush regeneration, how bad is Australia’s weed problem today? According to biologist Tim Low, exotic species are invading Australia at a frightening rate.



The other green armyAdapted from Earshot on ABC’s Radio National, 7 April 2015.

Original story by Nick Franklin.

‘At the boundary between bushland and suburbia it’s almost like a lava flow—flowing over the fence and creeping into the bush ... and there’s a sense of complacency in Australia,’ he says.

Despite our quarantine laws, Low says, 20 new kinds of weeds are entering Australia every year.

Our forebears were even worse, actively introducing plants which are today listed as noxious weeds. Among the many early weed importers, Victorian government botanist Baron Ferdinand Von Mueller stands out—not only for his often pompous speeches promoting weedy plants, but as a man of action. He always carried a packet of blackberry seeds in his pocket, and scattered them through the wilderness on field trips. He believed that one day people would bless him for his thoughtfulness.

Bush regeneration has always been a work in progress, with occasional passionate arguments about how best to help the bush repair itself. At Wingham Brush near Taree in NSW in the 1980s the battle was fierce. The actual fight against fast growing exotic vines was incredibly tough, but it was nothing compared to the controversy over techniques used by the local bush regeneration team.

John Stockard’s team committed the cardinal sin of deviating from the Bradley method. They were sacked by the National Trust for their use of herbicide and over clearing, but were subsequently vindicated. The National Trust later—on the advice of a newly-appointed scientific committee—recognised that different weed-infested sites required different treatments.

These days many people enter bush regeneration after leaving better paid city jobs. For me, after spending the last 30 years office-bound, it was a chance to work outdoors in the natural world. Few people do it primarily for the money—many are employed as casuals. You can be driving to work and suddenly the heavens open up; rain means no work today, and no work today means no pay. Nobody has gotten rich doing bush regeneration.

Despite the physical challenges—aching backs and sore knees, as well as leeches, mosquitoes and ticks sampling your blood—the level of commitment by many bush regenerators is staggering.

I was quietly ashamed of complaining about my aching body when I met Rymill Abel—one of the pioneers of bush regeneration on Lord Howe Island, who at 88 is still doing volunteer work in Sydney’s Lane Cove.

Abel retired from paid bush regeneration at 80. I thought he was the oldest bush regenerator in the country until I met Bruce Mackie—one of the original team at Wingham Brush. He’s still volunteering aged 94: ‘I live for today but have an interest in the future and the Manning River, where I’ve lived for 50 years.’

FEATURE PLANT: Monotoca ellipticaThe spiky leaves of Monotoca elliptica, or tree broom heath, make it a great barrier plant or refuge for small birds and animals.

Tree broom heath is indigenous to the eastern suburbs of Sydney and grows in scrub, coastal heathland and dunes. It is a large shrub or small tree, generally up to 4m, but can grow taller in sheltered environments. Masses of small, white flowers appear from July to October, followed by edible orange-red fleshy fruit.

This plant likes a well-drained sandy soil and can tolerate dry, exposed sites, as well as light shade and moderate frost. It can be pruned to be more compact and used as an informal hedge.

bushcare update



Wildflower Walk 2015The wildflowers were on display for this years jaunt, with Kamay-Botany Bay National Park providing the perfect backdrop.

Danny Hirschfeld led the group of budding botanists, fascinating all with the variety and beauty of Australian wildflowers. The group hiked through the endangered eastern suburbs banksia scrub, past lookouts with sweeping views of Botany Bay through to Cronulla, and finished by walking down to beautiful Congwong beach.

The Native Plant PaletteThe art of harvesting dyes from native plants

Drawing inspiration from native plants to dye clothes is a centuries-old practice. Archaeologists have found evidence of textile-dyeing dating back to the Neolithic period. Records of the use of natural dye date back as far as 2600 BC in China. Somewhat more recently, the sappanwood (Caesalpinia sappan) tree was said to produce a high-quality red dye and was favoured by the Portuguese, who named it bresil or brasil. When they landed in South America, it was replete with sappanwood trees and they called the land Brazil!

Broadly, there are three types of natural dyes: plant-based, animal-based and those made from minerals. The majority of natural dyes are vegetable, from plant sources—roots, berries, bark, leaves and wood—and other organic sources, such as fungi and lichens.

The discovery of man-made synthetic dyes in the mid-19th century triggered a long decline in the market for natural dyes. Synthetic replaced natural for commercial textile production and, unlike natural dyes, were suitable for synthetic fabrics. Artists often prefer the pure shades and subtle variability of natural dyes, that mellow with age but preserve their true colour. Natural dyeing techniques are also preserved by artisans in traditional cultures around the world.

Today, natural dyes are experiencing a resurgence as people have become more concerned about the health and environmental impact of synthetic dyes.

The plantsThere are a wide variety of native plants that can be used to make dyes. Depending on factors such as the type of material being dyed, the quantity of plant material and the method used, the colours can be surprisingly intense. Interestingly, one of the more difficult colours to extract is the colour of most vegetation – green!

Eucalyptus leaves can be used dry or fresh to get either a warm yellow or a burnt orange. Red bloodwood (Corymbia gummifera) has been used for deep red tones, as have some persoonia species, using part of the bark. Banksia cones have been used to produce a nice warm brown colour. Blues and purples are commonly from Indigofera australis, which produces the indigo dye.

There are bound to be options in the kitchen too; strawberries and cherries (pink), raspberries and beetroot (red), onion skin and carrots (orange), celery and tumeric (yellow), and carrot tops and spinach (green). Experimentation is the key, but it’s also important to note that some plant dyes may be toxic.

The processIt is surprisingly easy to use plant dyes – however, there are some rules to follow. Synthetics don’t hold natural dyes, so use natural fibres like wool, silk, linen or hemp. Ideally, it’s best to use an outside table, or failing that, a well-ventilated area. There are several ways to dye using native plants, but this is the easiest:

Chop the plant material into small pieces and place in an old pot. Use about twice as much water as plant material and boil for about an hour.

Strain the water into a jar (glass if you have it) using a fairly fine mesh.

To ‘fix’ the colour to the fabric, soak the fibre in a colour fixative. Salt fixative (for berry dyes): ½ cup salt to 8 cups cold water.

Plant fixatives (for plant dyes): 4 parts cold water to 1 part vinegar. Add the fibre to the fixative and simmer for an hour. Rinse the material and squeeze out excess. Rinse in cool water until water runs clear.

Add your fibre to the dye, and either leave overnight or simmer for 30 minutes plus.

The productNatural dyes have a unique, softer look and a decent range of colours. They can look just like handmade pieces of art and are ideal for those who want to wear the colours of the bush!

The Native Dye GardenProbably the hardest part of using plant dyes is finding or growing the right plant to give the colour you want. If you like the idea of covering the whole cycle of the process, growing your own is a must!

Native dye gardens can be small or large and can be incorporated into your existing garden. Plants can be chosen for their ornamental value and suitability to dyeing clothing. This means they need to be relatively light, wash-fast and not an irritant or poisonous. It’s best to identify the plant and understand its properties before planting.

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHINGNaomi Klein

Naomi Klein points to the myths she says are clouding the climate debate.

Photomon Phone AppKeen photographers and Bushcarers take note: there is a new smartphone app specially designed to make photo-monitoring of your sites easy! It was developed by the Northern Agricultural Catchments Council in WA with some impressive features:

• a reminder when the next photo is due, • an overlayed transparent reference photo for consistent

field-of-view, • automatic naming, uploading and geotagging, • space to write notes for each photo!

The app is free as a ‘demo’ for individuals – just search for Photomon.

‘Forget everything you think you know about global warming. It’s not about carbon – it’s about capitalism. The good news is that we can seize this crisis to transform our failed economic system and build something radically better.’

We hear that the market will save us, when in fact profit and growth are digging us in deeper, says Klein. She argues that to get off fossil fuels just requires breaking all the rules in the ‘free-market’ playbook. The book also shows that the fight back is already succeeding in ways both surprising and inspiring, despite people being told that we are too selfish to rise to this challenge.

‘It’s about changing the world, before the world changes. This Changes Everything is a book that could redefine our era.’
