Pearl Beach Arboretum
We are working with a local community artist to have a tree day celebration and planting on site at the Arboretum. We have lost many of the plantings in our flowering shrub area which was originally planted in the early 1990s as a habitat for small native birds and animals. We plan to improve the soil profile before replanting it to become a favourite garden in the Arboretum for both visitors and for birds and animals.
