These small spaces are designed to deliver big impact.
Key features:
- Small footprint (as small as a tennis court)
- Filled with a diverse mix of native plants normally found in the wild, and suited to local growing conditions
- Closely planted (3-5 plants per square metre)
- Plants are selected to replicate the layers of a forest (e.g. a bottom layer, understory, canopy and emergent layer).
The soil is carefully prepared before planting. The site is maintained in the early years to help these forests mature in record time – growing in as little as 10 years, compared with up to 70 years it takes a forest to restore.
