TreeCo Saves 80 Year Old Olive Trees

The average life expectancy of an Olive Tree is between 300 and 600 years, so when we were approached by Mr and Mrs James and Kerry Stuart to rescue and relocate 20 beautiful Calamata Olive Trees which we’re planted on their family farm by their Great Grandfather some 80 years ago, we jumped at the opportunity.

To rescue a fully grown tree is a formidable challenge. From ensuring the roots remain as undisturbed as possible, to physically moving the trees – great care must be taken to stress the tree as little as possible if it is to survive.

At TreeCo we have successfully rescued and relocated numerous fully grown trees and to date, we have not lost a single one. The secret very clearly lies in how the trees are handled during the relocation process and then importantly – the replanting process.

Using organic compost and our Wurmbosch worm tea, a balanced, incredibly fertile soil ecology is created which is rich in naturally occurring microbes. This enhances healthy root growth which is crucial if a mature tree is to thrive after it has been relocated and replanted.

Our organic growing methods also enable the trees to maintain their own natural level of resilience to pests and diseases, which ultimately provides them with more energy to settle quicker and grow at a natural and consistent speed.

Typically it takes 2 years for a tree to settle completely and so we will be keeping a close eye on these 80 year old Calamata Olive Trees for the next 24 months before we offer them for sale.

Back at the nursery the TreeCo team gets to work to fit our rescued Olive trees into their new 3000lt bags.

 

 

Almost done - the last of our 20 rescued Calamata Olive trees is settled into her new home!

 

 

Here is David, one of our keen team members treating our rescued Calamata Olive trees to what the trees consider a delicious Wurmbosch worm tea! It is this organic substance which makes all the difference to our beautiful trees!

Important Plant Families in South Africa - Celastraceae

In order to facilitate the identification of our wealth of lovely South African trees, it is helpful to be familiar with the most prominent plant families in an area as well as the characteristics that distinguish each plant family. Every month we will feature one of the most important and well represented plant families, focusing on easily recognisable features to assist identification.

Celastraceae (Spike Thorn family)

This very large, familiar family is represented by approximately 60 tree species in southern Africa. Although this is a rather indistinct family, once one becomes more familiar with it, plants with a typically ‘celastraceous’ appearance can more easily be identified.

The young twigs on most species are generally angular and greenish in colour. Some species are unarmed while others are conspicuously spiny.

The mostly leathery leaves are either alternate or borne in clusters with translucent venation on the lower surface. There are a few species that have rubbery threads where the leaves are broken. Although the shape of the leaves varies, most taper at the base.

The small white or greenish flowers are inconspicuous, bisexual or unisexual and are solitary or in cymes or groups.

The fruit is a roundish or lobed capsule that splits open revealing I – 8 distinctive seeds with a fleshy orange or whitish aril.

The Celastraceae family has no particular economic importance but some species with decorative, often variegated foliage, are well known ornamentals. These include Euonymus and Celastrus.

Some examples of this widespread family include: Maytenus heterophylla (Common spike thorn), Maytenus senegalensis (Confetti tree), Maytenus undata (Koko tree), Catha edulis (Bushmans tea), Cassine crocea (Red saffron), Cassine papillosa (Common saffron) and Cassine peragua (Bastard saffron).

 

Spectacular Monthly Tree - November 2013

The popular and hardy Brachylaena discolor is a well known small to medium sized tree that is suitable for a wide range of landscaping applications. These trees are particularly common along the Eastern Cape and Kwa Zulu Natal coastline where they are often used for dune consolidation. The name discolor refers to the two toned leaves that are glossy, deep green above and silvery white below. The creamy white flowers appear in terminal panicles and the fruit consists of a small nutlet with a tuft of bristly hairs at the tip.

We are currently running a special on these attractive trees as they are an ideal choice for difficult areas, or, for creating a lovely contrast to other plant material. Our well grown, sturdy specimens are now only R280 each, so you can easily afford to buy a few to enhance your landscaping project

Sterculia murex (Lowveld chestnut)

The magnificent Sterculia murex is generally associated with the warm, lowveld region of South Africa but beautiful specimens can be viewed in many of our botanical gardens, including Kirstenbosch, which has a Mediterranean climate. Provided these superb trees are planted in a sheltered position and provided with adequate water, they will thrive in all but the coldest and driest parts of the country. The fascinating form of the amazing fruit as well as the dense sprays of sunny yellow flowers with crimson spotted centre, make this one of our most handsome indigenous trees.

 

TREE DETAILS
Botanical Name	Sterculia murex
Common Name	Lowveld chestnut
Genus	Sterculiaceae
RSA National Tree No’	475
LANDSCAPING USES
The selection of indigenous trees that lend a truly tropical feel to the landscape is fairly limited but this is where the strikingly beautiful Lowveld chestnut comes into its own. The cool green, foliage has a distinctly tropical appearance while the highly decorative sprays of flowers and the unique, spiky fruit provide added interest throughout the growing season. This extraordinary, medium sized tree will greatly enhance a tropical themed landscape while a single specimen will create an unusual and rewarding focal point in any garden. As Sterculia murex is deciduous, it will allow sunlight into the garden in winter and the magnificent bronze hue of the newly sprouted, young foliage adds instant colour in spring. Wherever a unique and interesting tree is sought for the landscape, the superb Lowveld chestnut is an excellent choice.
TREE SPECIFICATIONS
Height	6 – 12m
Spread	4 - 5 m
Deciduous/Evergreen	Deciduous
Growth Habit	Sterculia murex is found growing naturally in open forest areas, stony wooded hillsides and rocky ridges as well as in bushveld regions.
Bark	The Lowveld chestnut has thick ribbed bark that is grey brown in colour. As the tree ages the bark becomes almost black and develops distinctive cracks in rectangular sections.
Foliage	The spring foliage of Sterculia murex is a lovely bronze colour becoming bright green as the foliage matures. The velvety, palmately compound leaves comprise 5 to 10 oblong leaflets on short stalks that are joined at the centre.
Flowers	The attractive waxy yellow flowers are marked with crimson spots towards the centre and are borne in large, axillary clusters in spring.
Fruit	The unusual 5 lobed fruit are large, measuring 30cm diameter in some cases. The woody shells are covered with hard, spiny protuberances. The seeds are embedded in hairs that can cause severe skin irritation.
Seed	The large seeds are black or charcoal grey.
GROWING REQUIREMENTS
Growing regions	Sterculia murex is endemic to the warm lowveld region of the country namely Mpumalanga, but a few specimens can be found as far as Swaziland. There are some fine examples on the hills near the Pretorius Kop entrance of the Kruger National Park.
Growing conditions	The Lowveld chestnut prefers a well watered or moist location with well drained soil in full sun or semi shade.
Best season	Spring / Summer
Hardiness	These beautiful trees do not tolerate heavy frost so they should be given some protection in the colder regions of the country.
Propagation	The large seeds of Sterculia murex germinate readily and should be placed on top of a coarse potting mixture or fine bark for best results. The roots develop before the leaves appear. Propagation from cuttings is generally quicker and easier however.
Growth rate	Fast
INTERESTING FEATURES
Although the wood of Sterculia murex is not suitable for use, it is the amazing, 5 lobed spiky fruit that are much sought after. The hard pods of the fruit are almost indestructible and last indefinitely. This makes them extremely popular as ashtrays and snack bowls as well as for making unusual ornaments. The large, black, edible seeds are very nutritious having a high protein and oil content. The seeds have a lovely, sweet flavour and are absolutely delicious when roasted over a fire.

Defining the term 'Organically Grown Trees'

Maintaining the natural fertility of soils is the basis for all organic practice, including the cultivation and preservation of shrubs and trees.

The natural fertility of soil is determined by the quantity of available soluble nutrients, moisture and microbes which are required to ensure optimal growth and a balanced ecology.

While we at TreeCo used chemical pesticide sprays on our trees only when absolutely necessary and tried to use the least amount of chemical fertiliser, the fact that we did so, never sat well with us. After researching permaculture growing principles, we decided that a more natural growing method was what we wanted to use in our nursery.

Our primary objective has always been to supply naturally resilient trees which are grown in such a way as to minimise any negative impact that we may directly, or indirectly have on our fragile environment.

What are the benefits of Organically Grown Trees?

1. Consistent Growth - trees grown in a naturally healthy, balanced soil base are more likely to grow at a natural and constant speed. In other words, growth spurts which compromise the trees natural resilience and core strength are avoided.

2. Healthy Root Growth - newly bagged and planted trees send out fresh roots within as little as 3 months in winter and even less time in the warmer months.

3. Resilience - a newly planted tree should never require chemical fertiliser if it has been grown and is then planted out according to organic growing principles. Organically grown trees are naturally resilient and are more inclined to survive demanding climatic and growing conditions.

4. Reduced Environmental Impact - even though growing and planting trees does itself constitute a positive contribution to a healthier, greener world, by using chemical fertilisers one is supporting industries that unfortunately have a negative impact on the environment.

TreeCo - All our Trees are Organically Grown!

For over a year now, we have been using 100% organic growing methods.

We decided to allow ourselves this extended period of time before announcing this fact, so that we could fully determine the results of our new growing methodology across the four seasons and across our range of tree species.

The positive results we have experienced are nothing short of astounding!

From many of our tree species which have continued to show signs of solid growth throughout the seasons including winter, to a noticeable improvement in the more balanced, sturdy look of our trees across all species and bag sizes, we are very excited about the exceptional growing results that we have experienced.

One of our most surprising findings however, has been the significant reduction in disease and pests. Since switching to organic growing methods, we have not needed to use pesticides or fungicides.

Although our trees have always been renowned for their extraordinary resilience and overall good health, our organic growing methodologies promise an even better experience for our clients

How we do it

Our soil base is specially prepared using Wurmbosch organic compost. We also use AfrEco organic compost tea, as well as Vermigro 100% organic fertiliser. Our soil is able to maintain a well balanced moisture level and a matrix of naturally derived nutrients and microbes - all of which are essential for optimal tree growth.

Important Plant Families in South Africa - Combretaceae

The large Combretum family is represented by approximately 50 tree species in southern Africa and is widely distributed throughout the country with the exception of the central and south western regions of the Cape.

The largest and most widespread genus in this family is Combretum, with Terminalia being the second largest genus.

Members of the genus Combretum have leaves that have entire or untoothed margins and are opposite or alternate but occasionally in whorls of three or four.

Members of the genus Terminalia, have a very distinctive pagoda like shape known as Aubreville’s model. The simple leaves are alternate and are scattered or crowded towards the ends of the branches.

The small, white or greenish white flowers of this family are usually borne in axillary clusters or sprays, but are generally not very showy.

The most recognisable feature of this large family are the distinctive fruits, which in the case of Combretum have four to five wings while those of the Terminalia genus have only one or two wings.

Although members of this family do not generally have great commercial value, many are grown for the extremely decorative effect of the abundant clusters of long or round, winged fruits, which come in a range of colours from white to yellow or gold, through to pink, russet and red.

Some examples of this large family include:

Terminalia stenostachya (Rosette cluster leaf), Terminalia phanerophlebia (Lebombo cluster leaf), Terminalia sericea (Silver terminalia), Combretum erythrophyllum (River combretum), Combretum hereroense (Russet bush willow) and Combretum imberbe (Lead wood).

Scolopia mundii (Red Pear)

Scolopia mundii is an attractive, medium to large evergreen tree with a lovely, spreading crown and a graceful growth habit. The deep green, glossy foliage ensures that the tree looks attractive throughout the year. When the flowers appear the whole tree is bathed in a delicate fragrance while the profusion of golden or bright orange fruit gives a spectacular show from October to January. When growing in a forest, the Red pear grows taller and has a somewhat wider crown than in an open situation, where it will be smaller with a well shaped, dense crown. This lovely tree does well in all but the very driest regions of the country adapting easily to local growing conditions.

Let's Celebrate Trees with Arbor Month!

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago - the second best time is today. Confucius

Every September, individuals, schools, organisations and businesses participate in greening events to help improve our urban environment. With events held right around the country, there is sure to be something close-by that you can participate in. If you cant find anything suitable - why not simply go ahead and plant a tree yourself?

For landscapers - a great initiative would be to include this years highlighted tree within your projects for September!

Firstly let's look at the breakdown of what is celebrated when:

Arbor Day - 1 September
Arbor Week - 1 - 7 September
Arbor Month - 1 - 30 September

Well the Western Cape province was certainly a little too wet to celebrate much in the way of planting on the 01st September - but thankfully we have an entire month ahead of us!

Tree's of the Year

Both a common and uncommon indigenous tree species is celebrated every year. For 2013 your trees include:

Common Tree - Virgilia oroboides (Keurboom)

Suitable for both domestic gardens and landscapes, the Keurboom is a fast grower which produces an abundance of magnificent, sweetly scented, pea-shaped, purple flowers in spring and early summer.

Uncommon Tree 1 - Grewia occidentalis (Kruisbessie)

More of a shrub than an actual tree, the Kruisbessie reaches about 3m in height and produces very pretty purple, star shaped flowers in summer. This small tree/shrub is incredibly drought resistant as well as frost hardy and is an absolute must have for gardeners who wish to attract birds and butterflies.

Uncommon Tree 2 - Barringtonia racemosa (Powder-puff tree)

Suited to very humid and moist conditions, the powder-puff tree is in fact a mangrove tree.

Arbor Day Fast Facts

Here are some facts about Arbor Day you may or may not have known!

• Arbor Day originated in 1872 in the United States territory of Nebraska. Mr. J. Sterling Morton
• On April 10 1872, the first official Arbour Day, the people of Nebraska planted one million trees.
• Arbor Day was first celebrated in South Africa in 1983.
• In 1999 the South African Government extended Arbor Day to Arbor Week.

Join us in supporting the environment this Arbor Month by planting at least just one of the Tree's of the Year!

Important Plant Families in South Africa - Annonaceae

In order to facilitate the identification of our wealth of lovely South African trees, it is helpful to be familiar with the most prominent plant families in an area as well as the characteristics that distinguish each plant family. Every month we will feature one of the most important and well represented plant families, focusing on easily recognisable features to assist identification.

Annonaceae (Custard Apple family)

This large and fascinating family of mainly tropical and subtropical trees and shrubs consists of over 100 genera and is represented by approximately 20 native species in southern Africa.

All the members of this family are generally easy to recognise as they have simple, alternate leaves that are aromatic, occasionally somewhat blue tinged and are without stipules.

The inconspicuous, bisexual flowers are greenish with three sepals and six petals that are often arranged in two rows. There are frequently many stamens with few to many carpels. The carpels which have a very insignificant style are most prominent during fruiting. These often develop into clusters of fleshy fruits that radiate from the tip of the original flower stalk.

Many species produce edible fruit which are not marketed commercially but rather consumed locally, as well as being used medicinally or used for their believed magical properties. The fruits are generally known as ‘custard apples’ due to the custard like flavour of many or them.

The flowers of Artabotrys odoratissimus are an important and valuable commercial product as the oil produced by distillation of the blooms, yields one of the best known oils used in the French perfume industry, namely, ylang-ylang.

Some examples of this species include; Annona senegalensis (Wild custard apple), Artabotrys monteiroae (Red hook berry), Hexalobus monopetalus (Shakama plum), Monodora junodii (Green apple), Uvaria caffra (Small cluster pear) and Xylopia parviflora (Bush bitterwood).

Kirkia wilmsii (Mountain seringa)

The handsome and graceful Kirkia wilmsii should be far more widely planted in South Africa. This magnificent, medium to large, deciduous tree with its irregular, spreading, rounded crown is easy to grow and will tolerate mild frost as well as short periods of drought. The most spectacular and well known feature of this beautiful tree is the unbelievable beauty of its vibrant autumn colours from April to May, that conform to one colour per tree. The Mountain seringa is a year-round pleaser however, and is strongly recommended for all areas where heavy frosts do not occur.

 

TREE DETAILS
Botanical Name	Kirkia wilmsii
Common Name	Mountain seringa
Genus	Simaroubaceae
RSA National Tree No’	269
LANDSCAPING USES
For an unsurpassed autumn display, the breathtaking sight of the Mountain seringa, ablaze in a mantle of brilliant scarlet, vivid orange or rich gold makes this one of the most desirable of all indigenous trees. This wonderful garden subject is a most pleasing addition to any medium or large garden and being fairly low maintenance, is also perfect for street planting and public areas. The Kirkia wilmsii lends interest to the landscape throughout the year as once the spectacular autumn show comes to an end, the bare branches create an interesting tracery against the winter sky. Then in spring, the flowers attract a host of colourful butterflies, while in summer, it provides welcome shade. Whether planted as a striking specimen or in groups, this is a truly excellent choice for any landscape.
TREE SPECIFICATIONS
Height	6 - 8 m
Spread	3 - 4 m
Deciduous/Evergreen	Deciduous
Growth Habit	The Mountain seringa is found growing naturally in dry bushveld, preferring rocky mountain slopes and granitic and dolomitic soils.

GROWING REQUIREMENTS
Growing regions	Kirkia wilmsii is endemic to the warmer northern regions of South Africa and are found growing wild in Mpumalanga and Limpopo.
Growing conditions	The Mountain seringa will perform equally well in full sun or semi-shade. Although they grow naturally in rocky or sandy soils, they can be grown successfully in any well drained soil. If the soil is acidic, a little lime should be added during the growing season.
Best season	Spring - Summer
Hardiness	Kirkia wilmsii will tolerate light frost and can withstand short periods of drought as water is stored in the roots.
Propagation	These trees are easy to propagate from seed but for quicker results truncheons that have been treated with a rooting compound are recommended.
Growth rate	Medium.
INTERESTING FEATURES
The Mountain seringa has long been valued by local people who harvest the bark, young stems and roots to produce a strong fibre which they use for weaving. The roots of this useful tree store water, providing an important source of water in times of drought, while the leaves are widely used as goat fodder.
