The
CSR team is inspecting the property and carefully selecting
which trees, shrubs and plants will be selectively removed.
Plants removed often include Russian Olive, Salt Cedar, and
a whole host of non-native species.
During >
Lance, the stewardship department manager, selectively
pruning a tree to allow light penetration to the ground. This
will allow for the vegetation under the tree to grow and avoids
shade pruning
After>
The selective clearing has created a
much healthier environment by opening up the canopy and
allowing light to the banks of the pond. The native vegetation
will now be able to compete with the non-natives for the
space available.
