native seeding

Erosion Control Co Ltd have been involved with native seeding over a long period and have developed some of the best methods of achieving success.

Not all natives respond to the same seeding methods so Erosion Control Co Ltd use a variety of application methods. We can discuss your requirements and give sound and practical advice.

Generally primary colanisers are used in conjunction with specimen plants. A typical seed mix for northern regions may include Manuka, Kanuka, Karamu, Mapau, Mahoe, Maire, Kauri, Akipirau and Tarire depending on soil type, terrain and environmental conditions.

We believe that our environment has a delicate balance so we always use seeds that are collected locally and we have a great knowledge about which species will suit each site.

	Less Damage=Quicker recovery To avoid competition from invasive plant species natives should be planted into a sterile environment such as Clay, Rotten Rock, Compost or our Liquid Soil™ as opposed to top soil.
