N2 patch
This garden is a registered restoration garden within the
Fynbos Corridor Collaboration.
The garden caretaker has committed:
- To support planting of primarily locally indigenous vegetation (note: we don't expect the garden to currently be there, but the caretaker is willing to work toward this goal).
- To work on removing alien and invasive species.
- To periodically provide updates on the status of the garden.
- When possible, to share seeds or cuttings from the garden's indigenous plants with other members of our network.
This is garden ID pending in our corridor.
Description
This sites sits on the corner of the N2 and Liesbeek Parkway, adjacent to Damlin in Mowbray. It is a large patch of grass that has recently been fenced. Since then it has been used more, seemingly because people feel contained.
Carol plans to extend the existing honeysuckle patch with a row honeysuckle plants of four different colours. She will also be planting spekboom. Carol will add sunbird-friendly plants to this patch to add to the number of patches of green forming sunbird stepping-stones linking Table Mountain to Rondebosch Common.
