Tree work in Revesby Heights
Bushland edge on sandstone.
- Shallow soil over sandstone means root plates can fail when the ground is saturated after heavy rain.
- Angophoras drop limbs, sometimes large ones on still summer days, so deadwood and weight-reduction pruning are common requests.
- Big native trees on steep, rocky blocks, often right at the back fence where the bush starts.
Trees we often see in bushland edge on sandstone: Scribbly gum, Sydney peppermint, Blackbutt, Turpentine.
