Comments : |
There are 1450 redwoods in this plantation. They were planted in 1930 by the Water Board as an experiment to test water retention and run off as they are in a watershed/catchment area. The trees have performed very well and most of them are in good condition. The land is presently owned by Melbourne Water. |
